23-Foot Pumpout Boats: Durable, Stable & High-Performance

23′ Pumpout Boats Built for Reliability, Stability & Performance

23′ Pumpout Boats from Marine Boatbuilders Company represent our third-generation mold, engineered from more than 25 years of hands-on experience building pumpout boats, work boats, and patrol boats. Every 23’ Pumpout Boat is purpose-built for safety, simplicity, and long-term durability, with an all-fiberglass, no-wood construction designed to perform day in and day out in demanding marine environments.

Modified V Hull Design for Superior Stability

Our 23′ Pumpout Boats feature a modified V hull with a concave bottom, not convex like most boats. This design delivers exceptional stability, predictable handling, and eliminates yaw in a following sea.

The hull is hand-laid using woven roving and gun roving with 100% “E” fiberglass and thermoset polyester resin. Finished with ISO NPG thermoset gelcoat (approximately 1.5” thick), the hull is built to resist blistering and harsh marine conditions.

  • 10-degree deadrise at the stern for quick planing

  • Composite laminate transom: 3” total thickness

  • No wood in the hull or transom—ever

All-Fiberglass Stringer System

Our state-of-the-art U-channel fiberglass stringer system provides superior strength and longevity. Like every critical structural component on our 23′ Pumpout Boats, the stringer system contains zero wood, eliminating rot and long-term structural failure.

Deck & Floor Built for Safety and Efficiency

The deck and floor system is fully fiberglass composite—no wood anywhere. The layout is designed to maximize usable workspace while eliminating trip hazards.

  • Hand-laid woven roving and gun roving construction

  • 12” raised bow step (48” long)

  • Two large forward stowage compartments with fiberglass hatches

  • Completely clear deck—no exposed pumps, vents, or piping

  • Non-skid surfaces on all horizontal areas

  • Self-bailing deck whether the containment cell is full or empty

Foamed Flotation

Two-part thermoset flotation foam is injected between the hull and floor in fuel tank areas, adding safety and buoyancy without compromising strength.

Premium Gelcoat Finish

Only storm- and blister-resistant gelcoats are used on our 23′ Pumpout Boats. White is standard and included in the base price, with multiple color options available as upgrades.

Fuel System

  • 50-gallon below-deck fuel tank

  • Fills to 45 gallons to meet 2021 EPA standards

  • Designed to prevent overfilling and sender damage

Note: Initial fueling may experience “green tank syndrome.” Slowly filling the tank resolves this and protects the sender unit.

420-Gallon Containment Cell (Standard)

Each 23′ Pumpout Boat includes a built-in 420-gallon fiberglass holding tank, positioned below the waterline for optimal stability.

  • Five layers of fiberglass, including four layers of 24-oz cloth

  • Four internal baffles for strength and flow control

  • Edson 120 ELB-40 diaphragm pump (40 GPM)

  • Pump, intake, and discharge piping fully concealed under the center console

  • External starboard vent

  • Audible high-level tank alarm

Waste Tank Level Indicator

A signature feature of Marine Boatbuilders Pump-Kleen® boats, the waste tank level indicator allows operators to monitor tank capacity in real time.

  • Float-based measurement

  • Marked for empty, half-full, and full

  • Located under the center console for easy viewing
