With over 35 years of boat building experience, the Jupiter Team is committed to building the finest, most technologically advanced offshore sportfishing boats available today. Every Jupiter is individually built to the exacting specifications of the sportsman who demands the very best in offshore performance, styling and reliability.
Jupiter was founded in 1989 in Jupiter, Florida and named after that prestigious coastal community. In 2007, Jupiter relocated to its current facility on the gulf coast of Florida to once again expand its production line in anticipation of its Express line of vessels. This 50,000 sq.ft. facility allows Jupiter the space needed for three lines of production, mold storage, paint booth and expanded office space.
If you are looking for the finest sportfishing boat this planet has to offer "one with great looks, fantastic seaworthiness, speed, quality construction, and a resale value second to none" take a ride on a Jupiter.
Jupiter boats are certified by the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), and the boat's construction techniques meet or exceed the standards established by the American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) and the U.S. Coast Guard.
Jupiter's outstanding performance is due primarily to its exclusive "Posi-Stern" hull pad design. This unique feature creates a variable dynamic stern lift that increases efficiency by providing a perfect running angle at all times, resulting in higher speeds, sharper turns, increased fuel economy and a smoother ride with no loss of visibility from the helm.
