WELCOME TO THE CLUB

We’re the people who grew up learning to tie cleat hitches before shoelaces and were driving outboards before skateboards. We’re the people whose idea of a vacation means staying home to go out and play in the beautiful lake we get to call a backyard.

We’re boat people. 

And if you’re a boat person, we’ll get along just fine.

WE'RE BOAT PEOPLE

IT’S ABOUT HAVING THE BEST CREW

IT ALL STARTED
WITH A FIRE

29 Tiara before

A boat fire in New York to be exact. 

Our founder, Mike Evenhouse has never been one to shy away from risk. Whether it was speed boats, bikes, engines, big waves, hot rods—Mike instinctively connects with anything that has a lot of energy. There really aren’t many moments you won’t find him tinkering with something. 

Fire damage

So when he found out that a brand new 29’ Tiara had caught fire, destroying the entire cabin, all he saw were possibilities of what he could do with it.

After some thought, Mike and a partner decided to start a company as a side project to buy and restore the Tiara back to its former glory. And when that Tiara was running better than the day it was first put in the water, another project popped up, and then another one—which took the business from a hobby to a full-time job. So, Mike decided to quit his day-job and Mike Evenhouse Yacht Restoration was born.

As we continue to grow, one thing remains the same—quality and customer service are paramount. With combined experience, talent, and our valuable tradesmen, we believe in doing the job right with exceptional quality the first time. 

Some say that the two happiest days of boat ownership are the day you buy it and the day you sell it. We are here to prove that every day with your boat can be better than the last.
