The company's history
The company Duckworth, originated by enthusiast Ernest Duckworth, was founded in the late 60's in Clarkston in the northwest United States.
Duckworth, analyzing his fishing experience on the troubled Snake River, came up with his concept of the perfect boat. His company was one of the pioneers in the welded aluminium boat industry.
Later on, the shipyard owners changed more than once until it was acquired by Renaissance Marine Group, one of the industry leaders, in 2000. This company, which also produces boats under the Weldcraft and Northwest brands, later became part of the Westwinn Group Corporation. Despite all these changes, the owners have always tried to preserve the style and valuable qualities of Duckworth boats.
