Built tough.

Innovation doesn’t come from playing by the rules. Calculated risks, out-of-the-box ideas and team collaboration helps redefine what often becomes standard features on new boat models. G-Force is one of those ever-evolving companies. Pushing limits not because they want to, rather because they have to. Built by Greenbay Marine Ltd. in Finland, a fast glance at rocky archipelagoes and the whitecap-dotted Baltic Sea dictate that only the toughest of boats are welcome here.
That’s why the new G-Force 10 is a rather satisfying oxymoron; a pleasure boat built for professionals. An extremely strong yet lightweight body combines with the clever construction of the cabin and deck to offer livability, high speed and low fuel consumption.
Inside the G-Force 10, the main cabin and helm are independently suspended on rubber elements. The helm and navigator have robust Recaro seats with air suspension. The result is a smooth, silent and vibration-free ride. An innovative L-sofa in the cabin pulls double-duty by converting into a full-length extra bed with foldout mattress. A front cabin with a bed for two is an option, as is a separate bathroom with electric flush toilet.
Welcome touches include a 16-inch Raymarine chartplotter, bow thruster, electric steering, sound system, cabin heat, a home-like galley and a roof with an electrically opening panorama skylight.
Rich Larsen of Manitowoc Marina LLC, the exclusive North American dealer, says the boat is not only built by accomplished tradesmen in a storied part of Finland, “but the materials used are sourced with care, like the ocean-grade aluminum that ensures an impressive lifespan in an environmentally friendly manner.”
Powered by a single Volvo Penta D6 six cylinder or twin Mercury diesels, in 380 to 540 hp, G-Force 10 cruises at 30 knots and boasts a fuel consumption of 1.81 gallons per nautical mile.
