Jason Clemons
Everything that Clemons Boats is and all we have done is due to all of these great employees and all of the great people before them. My Grandfather Bob started Clemons Boats in 1966 and put all he had into this place, even as far as sleeping here on many occasions.
My father and uncle then poured a ton of love and effort into this business before passing it to me and it took all of these people to get us to where we are!
Thanks to everyone who has helped us along this journey including family, friends, employees, vendors, and of course CUSTOMERS!
