Located in Willis Wharf on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, Seaside Small Craft started as a one-man boat shop, building lapstrake double-paddle canoes, kayaks, and skiffs. With the introduction of CNC technology in 1995, our work has diversified to include kit manufacture and custom cutting of plywood boat panels, ranging from our 11' QuickLap canoes to the 40' Aurora.
