About Stephen R. Seaton

Stephen R. Seaton has been actively and professionally designing sailboats and motor yachts for 40 years.  Born in southern Illinois, the son of an U.S. Army officer, he spent most of his early years living overseas.  When military service became an option for him, the U.S. Navy was the logical choice, culminating a lifelong fascination with the water, boats, and what makes them go.

From America's Cup 12 meter sailboats to 94 knot racing power boats, Seaton has worked on almost every type of marine craft.  Seaton's design office is located in Ocala, Florida at an old friends' (34 year friendship) shipyard in the middle of Florida's beautiful Horse Country.  "Land locked" in Central Florida?...not at all!  From Ocala to the Atlantic Ocean can be found some of the most beautiful rivers, springs, swamps that grace this part of the world.  He has been working on designing his own "micro" trawler to explore these pristine waterways to the sea.

In 2006, Seaton joined together with John Clayman and Nick Nicholson to form Seaton Yachts, LLC.  Visit the website here: http://www.seatonyachts.com

In 2008, Seaton signed on with Northwest Trawlers for design consulting.  Visit the Northwest Trawler website: http://www.nwtrawlers.com/
