GUNBOAT RENDEZVOUS

Newly launched GUNBOAT 55 'RAINMAKER' and GUNBOAT 60 'FAULT TOLERANT' lined up with the always-dominant GUNBOAT 62 'ELVIS' for an early evening round-the-buoys race in Larchmont, New York. FAULT TOLERANT took the early lead upwind, taking full advantage of their J1 head sail in the light breeze. FT continued to dominate downwind, with ELVIS and RAINMAKER battling it out to the finish. It appears that ELVIS might finally have her hands full on the racecourse!

G4 TOOLING COMPLETE

The GUNBOAT G4 has reached another major milestone. The Holland Composites team recently pulled the molds from the plugs and are now diligently preparing to start the layup of Hull G4-01. With PJ Darshwuis and team getting plenty of flying time in on the new DNA A-Class, we're excited to see the cutting edge technology and experience translate to the G4! Check out the latest design updates here.

ANNOUNCING THE GUNBOAT G7

In response to the excitement surrounding the GUNBOAT 55's innovative and spacious convertible main living area, Gunboat is thrilled to announce its new larger offering, the GUNBOAT G7. Emerging from the conceptual phases, the G7 is Gunboat's new larger series offering in a size range that has not been addressed since the iconic GUNBOAT 66 Series. Overall length is expected to be in the low 70' range. Stay tuned for more information on this unprecedented world cruising platform!

55 EXCEEDING EXPECTATIONS

The first of the GUNBOAT 55 Series is taking full advantage of the beautiful New England summer season. Based in Manhattan and cruising the Northeast coastline, RAINMAKER's owners are overjoyed with the comfort and performance their new yacht provides. Captain Chris Bailet calls the 55 a "Gun worthy machine". RAINMAKER's second competitive outing will come later this week, when boat and crew will take on the Around Long Island Race.
