After celebrating 15 years of being in business last year, Bayliss Boatyard is now in the process of their largest expansion ever. In February, contractors broke ground on a nearly 1,000 linear foot bulkhead project which will add 10 new boat slips as well as an expansion of the hard top adding 15 additional workspaces. Also part of the plan is…
Every boat built by Bayliss Boatworks is a truly custom project. In the case of Overtime, our newest 67’6’’ build to hit the water, she will be the weapon of choice for a Cabo San Lucas based program. With the help of the experienced captain and owner team, Bayliss Boatworks has designed a sportfishing yacht…
Bayliss Boatworks is in a constant state of evolution. We are always looking at our processes, how things can be done more efficiently, and what we can do to improve quality. In October of 2021, we broke ground on our latest facility addition: a 10,000 square foot paint building. Five years ago, we made the…
In 2011, a request for a 90′ sportfisherman yacht was presented to us from the Singularis sportfishing team. We pushed our previous limits and were able to successfully design, build, and deliver the longest sportfisherman our company has built to date. When the same owner came back with requests that ultimately led to the idea…
We are excited to announce the completion of Wave Paver, our latest 75’ custom sportfishing yacht to hit the water. Now that our work on the project is finished, we look back with pride to just over two years ago when her owners approached us to discuss their second build. It is an honor to…
This month, we celebrate a major milestone: 20 years of building quality custom sportfishing yachts. From the beginning, there was no way we could know how much we would accomplish over our first two decades as a company. Since April 15, 2002, we have completed 32 builds, expanded our facilities beyond what we thought possible,…
Photo: Austin Coit Old Reliable was built to be an effective and efficient offshore fly fishing weapon. Upon comparison, you will see many similarities between Hull 5 and Hull 25, as Smith became adapted to many qualities on the original boat. With 14 years between the builds, there was also great opportunity for modernization and…
In late November, Bayliss Boatworks delivered its most recent build to its owners, the 62-foot Seven; the first owners to enjoy two BBW christenings. She was a product of over 42,000 man-hours and nearly 19 months of labor; Seven is geared to fish efficiently as possible. Seven’s hull will not be mistaken for any other…
For those who follow offshore fly fishing, Nick Smith needs no introduction. He has been at the forefront of the sport for nearly two decades and continues to set impressive records each year on his 64′ Bayliss yacht. We’d be hard pressed to find anyone more passionate about the sport than Smith, and we’re fortunate…
Here at Bayliss, we’re in a constant state of evolution. We concentrate on refining previous tried and true techniques, making them better. One way we have been able to do this is by embracing innovative boat building equipment. These are a few of the pieces of equipment we have added to our belt over the…
We pride ourselves on the fact that our Bayliss custom yacht interiors are some of the most striking in the industry. It is important that the quality of the materials and the functionality and execution of the design ultimately shine through. Although the appearance of a custom Bayliss yacht interior looks clean and simple, the…

Salty Tiger’s custom transom artwork has garnered more attention than any other element on this build. However, she also features a teak cockpit deck and coverboards, with…
