About Us

JBT Marine was founded with one simple goal: to provide unmatched boat repair and fabrication services for boaters who expect the best. Based in Yuba City, CA, we’ve become a trusted name throughout Northern California and beyond. We’re proud to be a Yamaha dealership and the only local shop offering specialized structural fabrication and full-service external boat repairs. Our clients range from everyday recreational boaters to government agencies like the State of California and Fish & Game.

What sets us apart is our experience and our people. With a team of about seven highly skilled mechanics and fabricators—each with years of marine expertise—there’s very little we haven’t seen. From trailer repairs and hull restoration to transducer installs and reupholstering, we take care of every detail. We even test our work on the water before returning your boat, ensuring that it performs exactly as it should. At JBT Marine, we take pride in offering solutions that last, with craftsmanship that speaks for itself.
