Company history

One day, Rob Shirley, a water skiing instructor, used to race a boat on water. The athlete wasn't satisfied with everything: the density and height of the wave that was flying from under his skis, the speed the boat was dropping before the ski jump, the descent from the ski jump. But there were no other water-skiing boats in 1968, which was the year when it happened.

Rob had only to invent, design and build his own boat that would meet all his requirements, which he did.

Night vigils in the barn, which has been temporarily converted into a shipyard, weekend work, persistence and pursuit of the ideal have not been in vain. Rob Shirley created an excellent towboat and in his first year built and sold twelve MasterCraft Skier boats. Since then, MasterCraft has won numerous industry awards, set more than one record and regularly performed as the official tugboat of various competitions. So the leadership in this area MasterCraft is not going to give in.
