Partnership announcementA New Chapter in Luxury Canal Boat Building

The Aintree Boat Company and Mahulu are currently working together on a new joint website, which will be available in the coming weeks and will showcase the partnership and the luxury canal boats being developed by the two companies.

The Aintree Boat Company is delighted to announce its partnership with Mahulu, a privately owned US company that has established a UK company specifically to develop and build luxury canal boats. The partnership brings together The Aintree Boat Company’s years of boat-building experience with Mahulu’s innovative approach to luxury canal boat design, technology and affordability.

Mahulu initially approached The Aintree Boat Company with a vision to create a new generation of luxury canal boats, incorporating innovations and technology yet to be seen on boats in the UK.

The initial agreement was for The Aintree Boat Company to build two luxury 62-foot show boats. Such has been the success of these two boats that The Aintree Boat Company has now been awarded the contract to build a further 19 limited-edition boats, taking the total to 21. These boats will be built through 2027 and 2028.

This is only the start of a range of boats that Mahulu intends to introduce over the foreseeable future.

Through its close association with Mahulu, The Aintree Boat Company has gained greater insight into the business side of the industry, as well as incorporating new refinements, innovations and technologies into its boats.

Mahulu’s buying power also enables The Aintree Boat Company to offer some of these developments across a wider range of boats at more affordable prices.

The Aintree Boat Company will continue to offer its bespoke boat-building service to both existing and new customers. It will continue to do what it does best, including building its successful Beetle range, while also being able to incorporate some of the technology and refinements developed through its work with Mahulu into its own boats, where appropriate, at no extra cost.

The Aintree Boat Company has also been tasked with building a luxury 65-foot wide-beam boat designed to provide an alternative living solution.

After almost two years of working closely together, a strong bond has developed between Mahulu and the management and workforce at The Aintree Boat Company. While this partnership represents an exciting new chapter for both companies, the personal relationship between the people involved will continue, along with The Aintree Boat Company’s commitment to craftsmanship, quality and its bespoke service.

The future of luxury canal boating is already taking shape — and this is only the beginning.
