ABOUT MOOSE BOATS, LLC

ABOUT MOOSE BOATS, LLC

In 2000, Roger Fleck, industrial designer, founder and president of Moose Boats, started an aluminum catamaran boat building company at Port Sonoma Marina in Petaluma, California, where he oversaw the design and construction of patrol, law enforcement, fire and rescue and military vessels for various agencies including U.S. Park Police, U.S. Navy, Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office, and San Francisco Police Department. Moose Boats has also provided catamarans for agencies across the country: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Delaware and Virginia. The name of the company came from Roger’s wife and company CFO, Catherine Fleck, who described the original boat as, “Big and robust, like a moose.”

In 2016, Lind Marine, Inc., a commercial marine services company, acquired Moose Boats and relocated its operations to a 5-acre shipyard and dry dock on Mare Island in Vallejo, California.
