Mike Boat

It is with heavy hearts that I announce the unexpected passing of my brother, Mike Boat, at the age of 48. Mike has been an important part of Billy Boat Exhaust for 28 years and he will undoubtedly be missed. Mike has played an active role in just about every position within BBE, from being on the line welding headers, production manager, to engaging customers as head of sales. Mike had a very diverse and successful career racing in his own right, and was my right hand in building the company. His determination and spirit will always continue on here at Billy Boat Exhaust.

The single father leaves behind his two greatest joys, daughters Julia, 20, and Hayley, 17. Mike loved his girls more than anything in the world, and he worked hard to make sure they always had everything they needed. As Mike’s family and friends, we have started a GoFundMe page to help make sure Julia and Hayley have the funds they need to continue and further their education just as he would’ve done. In lieu of flowers or anything of monetary value, we kindly ask that you donate to Julia and Hayley’s education fund, so we can help Mike take care of his girls.
