Specialists in marine photography and video production
Salty Boats is a specialist marine photography and video production company based in Sydney, Australia.
We create high-quality visual content for everything on the water, from yacht regattas and brokerage campaigns to boat manufacturers and defence industry projects.
We are not outsiders looking in. We are sailors, water people and boating professionals who understand the pace, detail and demands of marine environments. We travel Australia and the world photographing boats, sailors and life on the water.
At Salty Boats, boats are not just what we shoot. They are what we know, what we love, and what we live.
What we do
Yacht regattas
We capture the energy, intensity and atmosphere of yacht racing with photography and video that understands the sport from the inside. From start lines to dockside moments, we know where to be and what matters.
Brokerage photography and video
We create premium visual assets that help brokerage listings stand out. We know how to photograph and film vessels in a way that highlights design, condition, layout and lifestyle appeal.
Boat manufacturer content
We work with boat builders and marine brands to produce polished, professional content for marketing, launches, campaigns and digital platforms. We know how to showcase craftsmanship, performance and the boating experience.
Defence industry marine projects
We deliver photography and video for defence and marine industry clients with a strong understanding of operational environments, professionalism and discretion. We know how to work safely, efficiently and respectfully in complex settings.

Testimonials
“We have been working with Craig and the team at Salty Boats since 2017, with great results in photographing our models as they arrive in Australian waters and even a trip to our Taiwan yard to capture how it all comes together.
Seeing how good their work and editing capabilities are, Fleming Yachts Australia now employ Social Dingo to look after all our social media channels. We couldn’t be happier as working with the team is so easy, with them being so responsive and approachable, and their knowledge of the industry is unsurpassed. We also have a little fun along the way!”
