There’s Custom. Then There’s Gause Custom.
The Boca Grande Edition is a custom center console boat that showcases just how far personalization can go on the proven Gause 26 platform. Born from the waters that helped shape Gause Built Boats, it brings together purpose-built fishing features, elevated craftsmanship, advanced technology and owner-driven details to create a Gause that’s truly one of a kind.
A Build That Pushed Custom Further
The 2026 Boca Grande Edition easily became one of our most talked-about builds—and for good reason. This Gause 26 brought together a collection of firsts, new ideas and highly customized details that expanded what’s possible on our 26′ platform.
Finished in Flag Blue with Blue Lagoon flake, this build is unmistakable from the first glance. But what makes it special goes far beyond the color. From purpose-built fishing features and custom storage to teak details and a completely personalized helm, nearly every area of this boat tells a story of customization.
More than anything, this build represents what building a Gause is all about: creating a boat around how its owner actually wants to use it.

A Build Full of Firsts
This Boca Grande Edition introduced a collection of firsts for Gause Built Boats—each driven by a purpose. From serious fishing functionality to custom craftsmanship and finishing details, this build gave us the opportunity to push our 26′ platform further than ever before.
Release Marine Teak Leaning Post
A Release Marine teak leaning post brings classic sport fishing craftsmanship into the center of this custom build.
Plumbed Pitch Wells
A first for our 26′ platform, integrated pitch wells add another level of functionality for serious live-bait fishing.
Custom Tackle Station
A custom tackle station with integrated drawers keeps essential gear organized, accessible and exactly where it’s needed.
Customization Down to the Details
True customization isn’t defined by one feature. It’s found in the details throughout the entire build. On this Boca Grande Edition, functionality, technology and finish were considered together to create a boat that’s unmistakably its own.
24″ Garmin Display
A commanding 24″ Garmin display anchors the helm, putting navigation, sonar and critical information front and center.
Faux-Teak Toe Rail
An exterior faux-teak toe rail adds a classic finishing detail while complementing the sportfishing-inspired elements throughout the build.

Custom Tower Height

Black Oak Night Vision Camera
A Black Oak night vision camera adds another level of visibility and confidence after dark, extending the technology aboard this Boca Grande Edition well beyond the helm.

In the sunlight, the Blue Lagoon flake comes alive—adding depth and metallic detail that changes with the light and movement of the boat.

Some boats are best experienced in motion.
The 2026 Boca Grande Edition brought together some of the most exciting custom details we’ve incorporated into a Gause 26. From the Flag Blue finish with Blue Lagoon flake and matching Mercury artwork to the custom tackle storage, plumbed pitch wells, teak accents and thoughtfully designed fishing features, every detail was selected with purpose.
But this build represents something even bigger for Gause Built Boats. It showcases just how personal the process of building a Gause can be. Rather than choosing from a predetermined package, our owners have the opportunity to create a boat around the way they fish, the way they spend their time on the water and the features that matter most to them.
The Boca Grande Edition is a reflection of that philosophy—combining the proven performance of the Gause 26 with craftsmanship, functionality and a level of customization that makes the finished boat distinctly its own.
