The G4 is a nearly optimal marriage of luxury and performance. Gunboat’s belief that, “We are fond of wedding cakes, but a cat cannot perform when it looks like one,” sums up the company’s go-fast philosophy with a low-windage, lightweight, stiff boat with T-foil rudders and C-foil daggerboards. The shape of the rudders controls pitching and keeps the bows up while sailing downwind. Storage in the bows provides space for SUP gear and other water toys.
