"In 1979, Master Boat Builders crafted its very first vessel, an 85-foot-long shrimping boat named Tar Heel Tide. We have come a long way since those early days, yet our passion for crafting quality boats has never changed. We are excited to continue evolving in the future and can't wait to see more growth and advancement in the industry."

These crabs have the last pair of legs modified into paddles, with which they are remarkably fast and agile sideways swimmers. Apart from this, they retain the walking and burrowing abilities of other crabs. Swimming crabs are bad-tempered creatures that aggressively defend themselves. Large ones can pinch very painfully, so handle with care!
