Herley Boats builds high-performance aluminium powerboats, ranging from standard 7m to 12m day boats and sport fishers to custom yachts up to 30m LOA. The company stands out for integrating hybrid diesel-electric propulsion systems alongside traditional power setups, giving owners efficient and quiet options on the water.

An in-house design studio handles mechanical engineering, electrical systems, and naval architecture under one roof. Having full technical control over the design process simplifies complex custom projects, whether creating a fast powerboat, a commercial work platform, or a long-range cruising catamaran.

Customization drives every project at Herley Boats. Owners work directly with the technical team to configure interior layouts, select specialized finishes, and adapt deck arrangements for specific cruising or fishing requirements. Every boat reflects the exact operational demands of the owner rather than a rigid factory template.

Combining heavy-duty aluminium hull construction with modern electric-drive integration gives these powerboats exceptional range, structural integrity, and reduced emissions. From coastal day trips to extended offshore voyages, the company delivers tailored builds suited to diverse sea conditions.
