The Finest Offshore Catamarans in the World.
Built to Order. Available in the Florida Keys.
Custom built offshore catamarans and center consoles from 35 to 55ft. Available at BTH Marine, your authorized Front Runner dealer in the Florida Keys.
Why serious offshore anglers are choosing catamarans, and why Front Runner leads the category
The catamaran hull changes everything. Exceptional stability in rough conditions. Shallow draft that gets you into places a monohull can't reach. A platform that fishes better, rides smoother, and handles the kind of offshore conditions that keep other boats at the dock.
Front Runner Boat Works builds some of the finest offshore catamarans in the world, from the 35 Cat twin engine entry point all the way to the pinnacle 55 Cat. Every one is custom built by hand in Jacksonville, Florida around the specific way you fish, the specific waters you run, and the life you live on the water.
BTH Marine is your authorized Front Runner dealer in the Florida Keys. We fish these waters every day. We know every channel, every current, and every condition the Atlantic and the Gulf throw at you out here. When you build a Front Runner through us, you get a team that understands exactly what you need.
EXCEPTIONAL
OFFSHORE STABILITY
The catamaran hull eliminates the pounding of a monohull in rough conditions. Front Runner cats run smooth in seas that would send other boats home, giving you more days on the water and more confidence when you're far offshore.
SHALLOW DRAFT.
DEEP CAPABILITY.
Front Runner catamarans get into places most offshore boats can't go, then run back out through open ocean conditions without hesitation. From the backcountry flats to 60 miles offshore, one boat handles it all.
HAND BUILT IN THE USA.
CUSTOM TO ORDER
Every Front Runner catamaran is built around you, your fishing style, your electronics, your layout, your life on the water. No two boats are exactly alike. No assembly line. No shortcuts.
THE OFFSHORE CATAMARAN IS NOT A TREND. IT'S WHERE SERIOUS FISHING IS GOING.
For years, the monohull center console dominated offshore fishing. And it's still a great platform, Front Runner builds some of the finest in the world. But the catamaran has changed the conversation.
The stability advantage in a beam sea is not subtle. The shallow draft opens up fishable territory that a deep-V simply can't access. And the fishable deck space on a cat - the wide beam, the flat floor, the platform - is genuinely in a different class.
South Florida and the Florida Keys are perfect catamaran territory. The backcountry flats, the nearshore wrecks, the Gulf Stream edge, the Bahamas runs, the Front Runner cat is built for every one of those environments. It doesn't compromise between them. It excels at all of them.
If you're in the market for an offshore fishing boat and you haven't seriously considered a catamaran, you owe it to yourself to get on one.
BTH Marine can make that happen.

ALSO IN THE FRONT RUNNER LINEUP: CUSTOM BUILT CENTER CONSOLE
The catamaran platform is changing the offshore fishing world, but the center console is still one of the greatest fishing machines ever built, and Front Runner makes some of the best in the business.
Every Front Runner center console starts with the same foundation as their catamaran lineup: hand-built construction in Jacksonville, Florida, a stepped hull engineered for offshore performance, and a customization process that puts your fishing style at the center of every decision. No production shortcuts. No compromises. No two boats exactly alike.
From the 33 CC entry point to the flagship 47 CC, the Front Runner center console lineup covers every kind of serious offshore angler, weekend fishermen running the Gulf Stream edge, tournament teams who need a boat that performs under pressure, and bluewater veterans who've owned everything and know exactly what they want.
The 47 CC is the pinnacle of the lineup, and one of the most impressive center consoles built anywhere in the world. If you've been on one, you already know. If you haven't, we can fix that.
FRONT RUNNER CENTER CONSOLES 33 TO 47FT
If the catamaran platform isn't the right fit for your fishing style, the Front Runner center console lineup delivers the same uncompromising build quality in a classic offshore platform. Custom built to your exact specifications, from 33 to 47 feet.

BORN FROM A HIGHER STANDARD
Front Runner Boat Works was founded by Phillip Man and Mark Lacovara to fill a quality and craftsmanship gap they saw in the market. Every boat is built by hand in Jacksonville, Florida and held to a standard that is as much art form as it is engineering.
BTH Marine's relationship with Front Runner goes back to Tommy 'Chief' Hofstetter's racing days - long before BTH Marine opened its doors. We have been with them since the beginning and are proud to bring that relationship and trust to every client we build a boat with.
When you build a Front Runner through BTH Marine, we sit down with you, understand exactly what you want on the water, and work with the Front Runner team to bring that vision to life.
