American Airboat Corporation

American Airboat Corporation, a veteran-owned small business (VOSB) and service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) based in Orange, Texas, manufactures and sells airboats and related repair services to federal agencies as a prime contractor across multiple civilian and defense customer bases. The company operates on the GSA Federal Supply Schedule and competes primarily under small-business set-asides and full-and-open procurements, with recent awards spanning Total Small Business purchase orders and non-set-aside delivery orders. American Airboat Corporation is a for-profit, manufacturer-focused corporate entity with no subcontracting footprint — all 64 awards in the source record are prime awards.

The company's capability portfolio centers on airboat manufacture, delivery, engine upgrades, repair services, and airboat rental with operator support. Representative named work includes a $92,395 Total Small Business purchase order from the Department of the Interior's Fish and Wildlife Service Region 1 (awarded August 5, 2026) for an airboat and trailer to support Willapa National Wildlife Refuge in Washington, with delivery due October 30, 2026; a $93,890 firm-fixed-price delivery order from Fish and Wildlife Service Region 2 for airboat delivery to Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge in Texas under GSA's Multiple Award Schedule (awarded August 1, 2024, with ultimate completion March 17, 2025); a $79,995 delivery order from the U.S. Geological Survey for Marine Craft airboat procurement under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (awarded May 19, 2022); and a $59,056 engine-upgrade purchase order from the Naval Air Warfare Center (awarded February 25, 2024, completing August 25, 2025). The company also holds a Federal Supply Schedule contract valued up to $500,000 through August 2026 and markets specific airboat models such as the 16x8 AirRanger at $65,828.77.

Customer concentration centers on civilian natural-resource and geological-survey agencies. Across 22% of recent awards, the top-five funding entities include the Army Corps of Engineers Engineering District Tulsa (4 awards, $59 thousand combined potential value), Fish and Wildlife Service Region 2 (3 awards, $103 thousand), Fish and Wildlife Service Region 4 (3 awards, $15 thousand), GSA Federal Acquisition Service (2 awards, $2.1 million), and the Naval Air Warfare Center (2 awards, $84 thousand). The potential-value ranking diverges significantly: GSA's supply-schedule role anchors 60% of the company's combined potential value ($2.1 million of $4.7 million total), while the Fish and Wildlife Service portfolio spreads across multiple small orders. American Airboat Corporation holds 23 task orders under the Federal Supply Schedule GS07F0329L ($1.4 million combined potential value) and 2 task orders under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule ($174 thousand). Award activity has been intermittent — one award in 2018, three in 2021, two in 2022, two in 2024, and one in 2026. Only one award (the August 2026 USFWS Willapa order, $92 thousand) faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. The NAICS profile emphasizes Boat Building (19 awards) and All Other Motor Vehicle Parts Manufacturing (24 awards), with primary PSC coding around Small Craft (32 awards) and maintenance/repair of small craft and floating assets.
