Lake of the Woods Boatworks Delivers First Winnipeg Yawl 21 to U.S. Dealer

May 20, 2026 marked an important milestone for Lake of the Woods Boatworks.

On that day, we delivered a Winnipeg Yawl 21 to our very first official United States dealer, 7 Flags Outdoors

For a company that builds boats one at a time with a focus on craftsmanship, quality, and timeless design, this delivery represents much more than moving a boat from one location to another. It is the beginning of a new chapter for the Winnipeg Yawl brand.

We are incredibly proud to welcome 7 Flags Outdoors to the Lake of the Woods Boatworks family.

Located in International Falls, Minnesota, 7 Flags Outdoors (formerly Badiuk) has built a reputation for serving outdoor enthusiasts with a wide range of boats, docks, motors, powersports equipment, and outdoor recreation products. Their team understands the boating lifestyle and shares our passion for getting people out on the water.

When we began looking for our first U.S. dealer, we weren’t simply looking for someone with showroom space. We wanted a partner that values customer relationships, understands life on northern waters, and takes pride in representing premium products. We found exactly that in 7 Flags Outdoors.

The Winnipeg Yawl 21 is unlike anything else on the market today. Inspired by traditional working boats on the big waters of the Canadian North, it combines classic lines, exceptional stability, modern construction, and a boating experience that encourages people to enjoy the journey. Whether exploring remote shorelines, fishing with family or customers, or cruising a favorite lake at sunset, the Winnipeg Yawl 21 offers a distinctive alternative to mass-produced boats.

Having our first U.S. dealer located in the heart of the North Country feels especially fitting. The lakes, rivers, and outdoor culture of northern Minnesota and northwestern Ontario are part of the DNA of the Winnipeg Yawl itself.

As exciting as this delivery is, we believe it is only the beginning. We look forward to working closely with 7 Flags Outdoors and introducing more boaters to the unique character and capability of the Winnipeg Yawl 21.

To everyone at 7 Flags Outdoors: thank you for believing in our boats, our vision, and our future. We are honored to have you as our first official U.S. dealer and excited for what lies ahead.

Welcome aboard.
