  H6-OB-deckplan — Four Winns (SPBI)

About Four Winns

Volume production

Michigan bowrider builder founded by the Winn family in 1975 and part of Groupe Beneteau since 2014 — 18 H-Series and HD-Series bowriders from 6.1 to 10.8 metres, each in sterndrive and outboard versions, built in Cadillac.

Four Winns calls its story a family affair. In 1975 John Winn, with his father Bill Sr. and his brothers Bill Jr. and Charlie, bought a boat manufacturing company and launched the Four Winns brand. The first models came in 1978 — the Candia, a family deck boat with a center console, and the Marquise, a light everyday runabout — followed in 1979 by the Catalina tri-hull outboard. Through the 1980s the boats were known by their angular wraparound windshields: the Santara cuddy cabin, the Liberator 204 of 1983, which Powerboat Magazine named most impressive new model, the Horizon and Sundowner lines of 1984, the Freedom entry-level runabouts from 1986 and the first Vista family cruiser in 1987, the year OMC Boat Group bought the company; John Winn went on leading it within OMC until 1995. In 1993 Four Winns introduced the Stable-Vee running surface, which won a Popular Mechanics design and engineering award in 1994 and was used across the whole range by 1995. The Funship deck boats replaced the Candia in 2000, the SL series arrived in 2008, and in 2010 the 49-foot V575 became the largest boat in the fleet. In 2014 Four Winns joined Groupe Beneteau, which brought a dedicated motorboat production unit to Cadillac, Michigan. The redesigned H-Series followed in 2022, with the bowrider range fully renewed by 2023; in November 2022 it launched the H2e with Vision Marine Technologies, which it calls the first all-electric series-production bowrider, and in September 2022 the TH36 catamaran opened a new range.
