Southport boats are the product of technology, boat-building experience and a lot of days on the water
In the fall of 2003, an experienced group of boat builders began planning a boat company designed specifically around the new heavyweight four-stroke outboards. With ideas garnered from experiences with the world’s leading boat brands, the results are striking. The result is Southport Boats.Southport boats are designed from the keel up to take advantage of offshore outboard power: big, four-stroke six cylinder engines. The economy and quiet power of the new four-strokes is phenomenal. Yet, most offshore boats are designed around outboard engines of the 1990s that weigh as much as 150 pounds less than the new power plants.Beamy, with deep vees, Southport hull designs are meant to handle these heavyweight outboards, providing a wider range of planning speeds, and soft, dry ride in rough conditions. All with a sense of style and fishing function all their own.
Southport boats are a unique combination of leading edge technology, offshore racing experience and hours watching baits.
Frank Longino spent a career at Grady-White Boats before joining a turnaround team at Chris-Craft. Val Jenkins ran Mako, Black Fin and Cigarette operations before joining Frank at Chris Craft. At Southport, they are realizing a dream of bringing together a team of the best boat builders they’ve ever worked with; to design and build extraordinary outboard-powered sport fishing boats.
