History and shipyard
Karel Boats was founded in the late 1970s by George Karelas in the Patras area, where the company began with GRP classic fishing and semi-displacement boats. By the mid-1980s, the yard had expanded into compact powerboats, and the Karel name was adopted in 1987. The business remains family-run, with the Karelas family still involved in management. Production is based in Patras and includes in-house work in areas such as upholstery, stainless steel, carpentry and design.
Model range and design
The builder’s current line includes open boats, fishing models and cabin boats, with examples such as the Ithaca 550, Paxos 170 and V 160. Karel describes its boats as combining aesthetics and functionality, and its catalogue shows models intended for both recreational cruising and fishing use. The yard has also produced compact boats around the 4 to 6.5 metre class, with a strong focus on GRP construction and practical layouts suited to Greek coastal conditions.
