LeBlanc Brothers Boatbuilders
Based in the Acadian village of Lower Wedgeport, Nova Scotia (not far from Yarmouth), the LeBlanc Brothers Boatbuilders pride themselves on building very good work and pleasure boats based on fishing boat hulls. Brothers Leo, Neil and Kevin have brought together a talented group of builders with strength, seaworthiness, fuel efficiency, fit and finish the hallmarks of their boats. The company was bought by nearby Wedgeport Boats in 2012 and the quality of both shops continues in the combined one. Here are a few samples of the work I’ve done with them:
- the workhorse of their yard. Able to head out into the worst weather: seakindly, efficient and strong
- a fast jet lobsterboat for Cape Cod
