Buddy Gentry & Steve Sauer principals behind "G&S Boats" became the go to builders producing high end specialized sports-fishers for those wanting to chase billfish on both light and heavy tackle.

Their design approach & building techniques pushed the envelope in styling and aggressive stern treatments featuring wedge sections under the waterline, rounded transoms & weight management to end up with boats that were known for their extreme backing down & manoeuvrability in reverse, so critical when chasing a hot billfish. Names such as Hooker, French Look 111, Miss Babbie & Hookin Bull to name just a few G&S boats with legendary status in game fishing circles.

Other outstanding features include a Separate isolated pump room so systems continue to work in the tropics, a large Brine tank for Snap Freezing baits & chilling drinks when restocking. The cockpit has been described as one of the most workable going around.
