Wood For Sale

Ocean Marine offers wooden commercial fishing boats for sale, including classic wooden trawlers, lobster boats, shrimp boats, and multi-species wooden fishing vessels. Wooden hull construction has a long history in commercial fishing, offering repairability and classic character.

Well-maintained wooden fishing vessels can provide decades of reliable service, particularly in fisheries where traditional construction methods are still valued. Many wooden fishing boats were built to exceptional standards during the mid-20th century and remain structurally sound with proper maintenance. Common wood species include white oak, Douglas fir, and longleaf yellow pine, each offering different durability and workability characteristics.

Buyers should plan for thorough haul-out inspections, marine surveyor reviews, and in some cases strategic replanking or caulking projects. Our brokerage team has decades of experience matching buyers with quality wooden fishing vessels. Browse our current wooden fishing boat inventory or contact us to discuss your specific requirements.
