Pictured below: David Gill (doing the rowing of course) with friends and family, back in their youth.

I know it looks like we're showing off with all the excellent designs and inventions that have come out of GILFLITE over the decades. (With all unique and original designs by David Gill - Founder of GILFLITE Boats along with his brother Kevin).

But this is how he started off; 1 ore in a borrowed row boat with a bunch of freeloaders......

You can see where he got his ideas from to improve things...

(Not that there is anything wrong with a row boat - we love it)!

Also photographed below, David in his hay day of rowing - winning many a trophy! To eventually designing and building record breaking race boats, ski boats along with improved performance and hardware options through to the beautiful Freedom Boat!
