Ghostworks is a Holland, Michigan based manufacturing firm boasting a world class team of boatbuilders, naval architects, designers, ocean engineers and subject matter experts. Rather than focusing on one type of vessel, the team employs creative problem-solving, disruptive innovation, and ingenuity to design elegant boats with exceptional utility. The use of advanced composite materials and technical expertise allow Ghostworks to produce the best-performing vessels available today with unparalleled performance and speed of delivery.

Ghostworks Marine designs, engineers, and manufactures the fastest, strongest, and most cost-effective composite vessels available today! Our designs combine the latest advancements in composite and fiber metal laminate technologies. This increased material strength supports our unique low-drag hull forms, allowing our proprietary M-Hull catamaran structure to chew through the water, creating non-mechanical hydrodynamic lift. This results in a stiff yet lightweight hull, improving speed and maneuverability. Our structural approach reduces the number of highly stressed bulkheads, optimizing our strength-to-weight ratio, and allowing for multi-use open bays, all while improving delivery time and reducing overall construction costs. Ghostworks vessels use industry-leading composite construction materials, including Carbon Fiber, Fiberglass, Kevlar, advanced aluminum alloys, and E-Glass.
