JAMES CRAFT

The James Craft brand was founded by Capt. Jim Shotwell in the early 1980s as a boat building, restoration, repair and sales company. After many years as a recognized leader in the antique and classic boat community, the company was incorporated as James Craft Marine Services, Inc. At that time the Chris-Craft Kit Boats of the 1950s Kit Boat Division were researched, developed and re-introduced.

A few years ago, A. J. Biscontini—a graduate of the International Yacht Restoration School (IYRS) in Newport, RI—crossed paths with Captain Jim Shotwell. Jim was looking for someone to carry on the art and legacy built by Chris-Craft and maintained through the James Craft Kit Boat Division. The combination of A.J.’s prior experience restoring and maintaining the in-water fleet of the Antique Boat Museum in Clayton, NY—along with his shipbuilding in Seattle—positioned him to assume the role.

In 2007, James Craft Marine Services, Inc. was sold to Biscontini Boat Works, Inc. Now leading James Craft to the next level are: AJ Biscontini (President,) Kevin Hess (VP of Operations) and Donna Kishbaugh (Executive Assistant/Office Manager).
