Since 1966, Flipper Boats has carved a niche in the boating world by designing and manufacturing boats that exceed conventional standards. From its humble beginning in Nauvo, Finland, each Flipper boat is crafted with a focus on meeting the dynamic needs of boaters, ensuring each model is perfectly suited for its purpose.
The journey began with the introduction of the original Flipper, a rowboat noted for its stability and safety. Progressing rapidly, Flipper Boats gained acclaim in 1968 with the Flipper Weedo, a motorboat designed as unsinkable and stable even when fully submerged. By 1970, the Flipper 450HT emerged, showcasing durability and a bold design that captured attention and solidified Flipper's reputation for creating aesthetically engaging and technologically advanced marine crafts.
Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Flipper Boats introduced models like the Flipper 640 HT and the Flying Flipper, setting new standards in boat performance and comfort. The partnership with Rapala and later transitions to Bella-Veneet Oy paved the way for international expansion and development of new models aimed at combining speed, functionality, and luxurious comfort.
The 2000s were marked by strong growth, innovation, and the introduction of new models that cater to modern boater needs. This includes the advanced 630 series and continuing up to the present day with a focus on stiff, durable structures and improved handling. Flipper Boating continues to expand on a global scale, reaching as far as Australia, further cementing its legacy in producing quality and distinctively designed boats.
