French Yachts

For Immediate Release

Designer Steve French has delighted the world with classic and revolutionary yachts of beauty for more than 25 years. Most knowledgeable people in the world of custom yachts consider the look of his designs for Garlington, Spencer and the new Merritt the standard by which many others are judged.

What most people don’t know is that behind the scenes, French has also been changing the very way builders create today’s sport boats. His hands-on boat-building knowledge is unparalleled within the design community. Since 1988 he has been the moving force behind many top custom sport-fishing industry builders advancing from all-wood construction to modern composite technologies. His pioneering spirit brought us many innovations we now take for granted.

Today, his wealth of knowledge and experience brings us a fleet of new yachts. ranging from 40 to over 150 feet, showcasing designs from classic to contemporary. The inaugural model, the amazing 41-foot Jager, constitutes a vessel many have dreamed of since the simpler days of fishing. I’ve attached the 41 Jager brochure for your reading pleasure. This little jewel boasts all the features of a larger yacht, including a 16’ cockpit, while operating at a fraction of the cost. This represents the perfect rig if you’re trading down and don’t want to give up any features or amenities or if you’re trading up and aren’t ready for a vessel requiring a full-time captain. The Jager 41 leaves the yard tournament-ready, but can still be handled easily by an owner. The Jager broadcasts its pedigree from stem-to-stern and is finished to impeccable standards.

French’s next vessel under construction, the Jager 53 Flybridge Walk-around will please the most demanding enthusiasts of all tastes and tackle. Stay in touch with us to see the other vessels like the 88-foot Motorsport that is currently build-ready.

French Yachts is based in Stuart, Florida, but unlike conventional builders, will have construction and full-service facilities in different regions to maximize quality and care.

Steve French has already built some the most advanced sport fishing boats on the planet today. French Yachts promises to build economical boats as well. What they will all have in common? A level of design and construction integrity that seasoned buyers demand.
