The Lewis name has been around since the 1930’s leading the way in power boat and ski boat development. Forging a strong reputation for uncompromising quality, performance and design, Lewis Boats now sets the standard by delivering the strongest hull construction technique in the industry.

Wynnum Marine’s director Danny Nichols believes that Lewis Boats sit perfectly alongside their existing line-up of popular CruiseCraft fibreglass boats.

“Lewis Boats has a longstanding tradition and an unmistakable assurance of quality that is difficult to find in the ski boat industry,” said Danny Nichols. “This is a neat fit with our CruiseCraft line up, a brand that is nationally respected for the same qualities as Lewis… long established and exceptional quality.”

“The ski and wakeboarding boat market is thriving and it is important for us to offer our customers a quality product if they wish to spend their weekend entirely devoted to action water sports. The range of Lewis Boats offers dependable quality.”

The defining key in Lewis Boats is the wide planing stepped hull design which delivers more efficient boating without compromising hull performance or top end performance. Unlike most deep vee ski boats, the wide planing surface on the Lewis hull provides a solid base at rest not dissimilar to flat bottom fishing boats.

Under power, the angle of the planing steps traps and forces air underneath the hull to break down performance-robbing, water friction. The result is a hull design that consistently achieves greater speed figures at lower revs than other hulls and also reduces engine and fuel costs.

Lewis Boats backs up their designs by delivering a ‘bow-to-stern’ 5 Year Warranty. Superior hull strength is achieved using a fully sealed floor which is securely fitted to the wooden longitudinal stringer system. All the joints and seams are completely bonded with fibreglass making the fully assembled hull a single, almost indestructible, unit.

Both Lewis Boats and Wynnum Marine pride themselves on strong heritage. In operation since 1946, Wynnum Marine continues to thrive within the Nichols family and has continued to deliver unparalleled marine service for nearly 60 years.

Wynnum Marine is owned and operated by the legendary boat building Nichols family. Wynnum Marine is the home of CruiseCraft Boats plus other quality brands including Ally Craft and now Lewis Boats. The company is also an agent for Yamaha, Johnson, and Evinrude outboards and offers the public a large range of marine accessories and a first class marine service centre.
