where are crownline boats manufactured
About Crownline. The first Crowlines were built in a very small manufacturing facility located in Whittington, Illinois. The upholstery shop was situated separately in a vacant grade school gymnasium. The first boat produced, a 182 BR, rolled off the line on March 25, 1991. At that time Crownline employed less than 25 people an had yet to sign a definitive dealer.
