Renowned as one of the finest boat builders, Peter O'Brien has produced countless quality vessels across O'Briens 40 year journey, including Fishing, Cruising and Patrol Boats. With the interest in game fishing and the need for fast, extremely maneuverable boats Peter set up O'Brien Boats Pty. Ltd, resulting in the O'Brien 33 OB1. Peter's aim was to build vessels that were fast, strong, economical to run and easily maintained and his layouts were designed to suit both the crew and the client.

The O'Brien 43 hull is especially good when the going gets rough. It has a 20° deadrise, a sharp entry and a comparatively narrow beam with big chines. It has bulletproof construction while keeping the weight down. The hull is solid glass, with a full interior liner or second skin, but the deck is Divinycell cored and the cabin doors are made from Divinyboard. Peter O'Brien, the man behind the marque, says: "Every boat we build is hand-built. We use vinylester resin and the latest technology in triaxial and double-bias rovings, which gives a super-light laminate with unbelievable strength. The entire boat is hand-laid, taking 7300 man hours. "
