Testimonials
Lake Bonneville Layout Boats have been field-tested by some of the best and most recognized waterfowlers, outfitters, and outdoor journalists in the country. From the Chesapeake Bay to the Great Salt Lake to the incredibly unpredictable – and sometimes, deadly – waters of Alaska, these boats are designed and constructed to take everything and anything Mother Nature can dish out. But our words of praise are one thing – listen to what the men who make their livings on the water have to say about these extraordinarily rugged and dependable skiffs –
“Looking for the best-constructed layout boats that you can actually carry aboard with you? In my opinion, Lake Bonneville Layout Boats are you answer. They’re just a super boat!” – Captain Jeff Coats, Pitboss Waterfowl, Maryland
“The Lake Bonneville Layout Boat has been the greatest addition to my hunting arsenal. A must-have for concealment, and in-your-face action.” - Rob Friedel, Fried Feathers Outfitters, Utah
“I’ve hunted big water in every type of set-up and every type of boat available, and in my opinion, there’s nothing more exciting than a layout hunt for divers or sea ducks. That said, Tony has built a boat unmatched in quality and design, and offers it at a price that today’s waterfowl can afford.” – Captain Brian Rhodes, The Swampers, Rhode Island
“As a guide, I need quality equipment that can stand up to rough use and daily abuse. The Lake Bonneville boats have exceeded all my expectations in quality and design. I’ve already ordered several more!” – Captain Tim Brouchard, Alaska Wildlife Adventures
“Late-season open water drake pintails decoyed like we weren’t even there. From that moment on, I was absolutely sold on the ability of Tony’s boats to make me damn near invisible. Comfort, concealment, portability, and room to operate – Lake Bonneville Layout Boats offer it all, and then some.” – M.D. Johnson, M & J Outdoor Communications, Iowa
“Like a lot of waterfowlers today, I’m always trying to find a new and unique way to get an edge. When I found Tony Smith and Lake Bonneville Layout Boats, I knew I’d found that edge. Tony’s boats are unbelievably well-constructed, and fully capable of handling the day in-day out punishment that we waterfowlers inflict on our equipment. I’ve harvested divers, puddlers, and geese from my Apparition with great success. These boats are an excellent investment, and a must-have gear item for any waterfowler.” – Josh Noble, Avery Outdoors Territory Manager, Utah
