Gause Built Custom 26 The Evolution Continues…

Gause Built Custom Fishing Boats continue to evolve. Each new customer brings his own ideas and preferences to their particular project, many of which get rolled into the standard production of subsequent boats. The result is a boat that you must experience first hand to believe. Anglers looking for a versatile platform capable of taking them into the shallows or offshore into wide open seas; will undoubtedly appreciate Gause’s innovations. Manufacturing starts with a unique four component construction system utilizing only 100% hand laid bi-axial fiberglass and nida-core – complimented by an integrated foam-filled stringer system leaving this versatile vessel virtually unsinkable!

Add in a stable, modified V hull with super-wide gunnels capable of handling nearly any conditions, and buyers will be hard-pressed to find a more functional platform in this size class. Avid anglers will also find all of the amenities you would expect in a first-rate craft with built-in electronics box, insulated fish-boxes, washdown systems and so much more. Plus, all service and maintenance areas are easily accessible. While the Gause Built Custom 26 was designed to handle a single outboard of up to 300 horsepower, the boat can be customized to accommodate twin 150s. Topping it all off, each Gause Built 26 is custom painted with a nearly endless list of available colors.
