The allure of houseboating is epitomized

by the recreation and freedom found only

on the water. Initially, houseboats were lit-

tle more than a “box on barrels” with

very few amenities.They have

now evolved into luxurious floating con-

dominiums.

You’ll find the houseboats created by

Twin Anchors Marine are indeed

people’s second homes. Every houseboat

is as individual as its owner.Today’s boats

are stunningly designed, superbly crafted,

performance oriented and require low

maintenance. So welcome aboard, enjoy

the ride and remember that your dreams

are our passion.

A beautifully crafted houseboat is something for family and friends to kick back and relax on. Grilling

shrimp kebabs on the bridge deck, idling down the lake fishing, lounging in the hot tub under the night

sky, or enjoying your water toys, this and so much more is the unique houseboating lifestyle! Immerse

yourself in the family fun, sense of freedom and relaxation offered by houseboating?

Twin Anchors knows how to make a big splash too. Our history in the houseboating industry brings

three decades of trusted building experience, cutting edge innovations, exemplary levels of service and

unmatched customer satisfaction. Building houseboats isn’t a job for us. It’s a way of life.

The search for a perfect summer home can be

challenging.A houseboat can offer you exactly what

you’re looking for; a second home with just the right

mix of luxury and convenience. Getting your thoughts

from your head onto paper, and then turning those

concepts into a reality that works for you requires

expertise and dedication.

At Twin Anchors Marine we build our CruiseCraft

houseboats from the hull up at our Sicamous

manufacturing plant.This assures quality construction

and meticulous attention to detail. Our houseboats are

developed in consultation with a naval architect, then

manufactured to selected standards of the American

Boat and Yacht Council.All models meet or exceed

both US and Canadian Coast Guard Standards and

are NMMA Yacht Certified.

In addition to these stringent measures, we input

customer feedback from our rental fleet into our

manufacturing ISO 9000 quality assurance program.

The results are dynamic: superior houseboats that will

stand the test of time. Expect lower maintenance,

overall longevity and a higher resale value.

Customer driven innovation is what motivates the Twin Anchors design team.As well as building

boats, we manage a combined rental fleet of over 100 charter vessels operating from our marinas in

Salmon Arm and Sicamous on Shuswap Lake in the interior of British Columbia. In fact, our

reputation for innovative building techniques and design solutions have earned us the respect and

distinction of being the manufacturer of choice to 18 premier houseboat rental marinas throughout

North America. Renters are, in general, far more effective in finding shortcomings in a boat than the

most diligent research and development department. Our hands on experience in building for and

maintaining sizable rental fleets makes us directly aware of the need to build boats with the rugged

construction that will stand up to years of wear and tear without sacrificing style, design and luxury.

“I wanted a houseboat fleet that was

luxurious, dependable, required low

maintenance and could stand up to the

rigorous use of renters.Thanks to

Twin Anchors, I have that fleet.”

Mike HanJONES VALLEY RESORT, SHASTA LAKE, CA

“When choosing a manufacturer to build our

personal live-aboard houseboat, second best wasn’t

an option. I researched and discovered that Twin

Anchors was the manufacturer I was looking for.The

end result: the boat we dreamed of is a reality.”

Capt. John HardinSACRAMENTO YACHT CLUB, CA
