Year Creation: 1990
Services: Boat Builder, Boat Repair, After-Sales Support, MARINA Documentation & Licensing
Established in 1990 by Ildefonso G. Tronqued, Tronqued Boats (I.G. Tronqued Boats & Allied Industries Inc.) originated from a deep-seated passion for crafting high-performance speedboats for family and friends. Under the second-generation leadership of Marco Tronqued since 2006, the company has transformed from a boutique operation into a premier industrial shipyard. Today, it stands as a landmark in the Philippine maritime industry, holding the distinction of being the first and only boat manufacturer in the country to achieve ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management Systems certification.
Operating from a specialized facility with over 100 skilled craftsmen, the company is a MARINA-certified CLASS-A Builder. It is recognized for bridging the gap between bespoke artisan boat-building and world-class industrial engineering, producing fiberglass vessels specifically designed to master the challenging waters of the Philippine archipelago.
Tronqued Boats operates on a "Full-Lifecycle" philosophy. Recognizing that a vessel is a significant investment, the company provides end-to-end solutions that begin long before the first layer of fiberglass is laid. This collaborative approach involves a one-on-one design process where deck layouts are customized to the client's specific operational needs. Beyond the build, the company ensures total "Ready-to-Operate" readiness by providing on-site crew training, sea trials, and comprehensive assistance with MARINA documentation and boat captain licensing.
Utilizing premium-grade marine materials and specialized departments for lamination, steel fabrication, and engine rigging, Tronqued serves several key maritime sectors:
Resort & Hospitality Transport
A preferred partner for the Philippines' elite luxury resorts (including El Nido Resorts and Discovery Shores), Tronqued specializes in inter-island guest transfer vessels. These boats, such as the 40 Interceptor Passenger, are engineered for stability, safety, and a premium aesthetic to ensure the guest experience begins the moment they leave the dock.
Private Recreational & Fishing Boats
From the popular 28 Seafarer to custom-built speedboats, the shipyard caters to private enthusiasts. These vessels are tailored for everything from inshore recreation to offshore fishing, combining "modified V" hull designs—which minimize bow rise—with luxurious custom upholstery and high-performance engine rigging.
Commercial & Utility Interceptors
Tronqued manufactures high-durability utility boats and cabin cruisers designed for speed and reliability. With the capability to deliver to all 17 regions of the Philippines, these vessels are built as robust workhorses for private entities and commercial operators requiring consistent performance in varying sea states.
Professional Support Services
Setting itself apart from traditional shipyards, Tronqued provides a holistic ownership ecosystem. This includes technical after-sales support, procurement of Marine Cargo Insurance, and specialized logistics for the conduction, lashing, and delivery of vessels to any port in the country.

As a MARINA-certified CLASS-A builder and the only ISO 9001:2015 certified shipyard in the Philippines, Tronqued specializes in high-performance fiberglass (GRP) construction. Every hull is engineered using premium composite materials and advanced lamination techniques to ensure structural integrity, buoyancy, and the ability to withstand the rigorous demands of the Philippine archipelagic seas.
The shipyard moves beyond mass-production by offering a collaborative “Design-to-Launch” process. Clients work directly with the technical team to customize deck layouts, seating configurations, and interior joinery. This ensures that every vessel—from modified-V fishing boats to high-capacity passenger ferries—is purpose-built to the owner’s exact operational specifications.
Operating from a specialized facility with dedicated departments for steel fabrication and engine rigging, Tronqued manages the complete mechanical integration of the vessel. This includes the installation of high-grade marine hardware, professional engine mounting, and the setup of critical electrical and communication systems, ensuring the boat is delivered in a “Ready-to-Operate” state.
To validate the engineering of every build, the company conducts rigorous sea trials to test hull stability, speed, and maneuverability under real-world conditions. Following these trials, the shipyard provides comprehensive technical training for the owner’s crew, focusing on the specific handling characteristics, engine maintenance, and safety protocols unique to that vessel.
Beyond the physical construction, Tronqued Boats provides essential maritime services including professional MARINA documentation, hull insurance assistance, and nationwide logistics. This holistic shipyard approach ensures that from the initial lamination to the final delivery across any of the 17 regions, the transition from the dry dock to the water is seamless and professionally managed.
