Founded in 1921 by John Smoker in New Paris, Indiana, Smoker Craft began as a humble lumber company. John's vision was rooted in craftsmanship and quality—principles that would shape the company’s future. As the years went by, Smoker Craft evolved from its lumber origins, ultimately venturing into the manufacturing of boats.

In the 1960s, Smoker Craft began producing its first aluminum fishing boats, quickly gaining a reputation for durable, well-crafted vessels. This transition marked a significant turning point, as the company embraced innovation while remaining committed to its foundational values. By focusing on aluminum construction, Smoker Craft combined lightweight design with exceptional strength, making their boats ideal for avid anglers and outdoor enthusiasts.

Throughout the decades, the company expanded its product line, introducing a variety of models tailored to different fishing styles and preferences. The Smoker Craft brand became synonymous with quality and reliability, earning the trust of boaters across North America.

What sets Smoker Craft apart is not just its products but its enduring commitment to family values. Still family-owned and operated, the company has maintained a culture that emphasizes integrity, craftsmanship, and community. Each boat that leaves the factory is a testament to the dedication of the Smoker Craft team, reflecting the same principles that guided John Smoker nearly a century ago.

Smoker Craft’s mission statement—“The best value on the water from our family to yours”—captures the essence of its commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. As the boating industry continues to evolve, Smoker Craft remains at the forefront, incorporating new technologies and sustainable practices into its manufacturing processes.

Today, Smoker Craft, Inc. stands as a proud leader in the aluminum fishing boat market, with a legacy that spans over 100 years. Whether you're navigating tranquil lakes or braving the open sea, you can rely on a Smoker Craft boat to deliver an exceptional experience on the water.
