Dream-Design-Build
Builders of bespoke houseboats and day boats
About us
We're a family business with a goal of providing unrivalled service
Edwards Built Family Houseboats was created by the Edwards family: Rod, Lisa, Brock & Chevy.
Rod built his first boat bound for Lake Eildon in the late 1990's in his Melbourne backyard.
In 2004 Rod & Lisa started a houseboat building & maintenance business operating out of Jerusalem Creek Marina.
A year later they moved the business to its current location in the Eildon township.
Working alongside Rod for a decade, two of his sons Brock & Chevy are now the driving force taking Edwards Built Family Houseboats into the future alongside Rod & Lisa.
