Eric Goetz founded Goetz Custom Boats in 1975 and has since set the standard for building state of the art composite boats. What makes a Goetz boat different from any other is the unerring attention to detail – whether in construction techniques or the quality of craftsmanship that is unsurpassed in the industry. Through every phase of every project, Goetz "no-stone-unturned” philosophy is coupled with leading edge technology to produce the lightest, fastest, most durable yachts possible – impeccably finished to suit the purpose.
Every Goetz boat is custom built in the true sense of the word, taking into consideration the customers’ specific requirements and priorities. Whether an Transpac 52 or Volvo 70 racing machine, a performance speedboat, a luxury cruising yacht or an America’s Cup winner, every project benefits from the expertise of the same team of dedicated boat builders, who complete each customer’s dream on time and on budget.
Goetz Custom Boats fully understands the need for racing and cruising yachts to be fast, reliable and simple to sail. So every boat, whether designed for around the buoys, offshore or endurance races, is built with speed, strength and ease of handling in mind. Time and time again, Goetz boats have proven themselves in the most competitive arenas, having emerged victorious in the America’s Cup, Admiral’s Cup and Maxi Worlds. Goetz boats have also competed successfully in the Whitbread/Volvo Race, Transpac, Southern Cross Series, Kenwood Cup, Sardinia Cup, International 50’, TP52 Circuit and countless other regattas around the world.
Involvement at the most competitive levels has required that Goetz constantly be on the leading edge of boat building technology, and always seek new ways to build faster, stronger boats. Considerable effort is put into research and development; through ongoing experimentation and association with marine and aerospace engineering, Goetz has consistently improved its abilities to meet the most demanding design criteria.
A Goetz boat is not complete until the customer is completely happy, and the commitment to customer satisfaction does not end when the boat is launched. Of course, during the construction of each boat, Goetz builders are in constant contact with the boat’s owners, responding at every juncture to questions and concerns. Building a boat is a process and the owner is encouraged to be as involved or removed from the process as he/she desires. Even after a boat has left the shop, a relationship with each customer remains that makes the experts at Goetz always ready to answer questions and help solve problems. Regardless of a customer’s location on or off the water, the Goetz team is always available.
