About Seefeld Boatworks

Many years ago in northern Minnesota, Eric Seefeld decided to build a fishing boat. This personal project grew into a passion, an education, and the founding of Seefeld Boatworks in 2013.

Initially focused on wood boat restoration in Traverse City, Michigan, Seefeld Boatworks has expanded to serve the greater Midwest and beyond with a competent crew.
