the Discriminating boat owner


knows that three factors are important in any watercraft: sound hull design-seaworthy construction-handsome appearance. To deliver these essential qualities, GLOBE developed a completely new approach to boat building. First, a noted naval architect and a nationally famous


stylist worked together, designing their ideal boats. Then GLOBE'S production engineers and skilled artisans went to work. The result: a group of boats (inboard and outboard) which are outstanding for beauty, performance, and structural soundness.


As soon as you see one of the distinctive new GLOBE boats, you'll realize how completely logical and effective this approach has been. You'll recognize GLOBE as a great new name in the world of watercraft.


the Men behind the New Globe Boats


DOUGLAS VAN PATTEN (left), a recognized authority on naval archi-tecture, has been designing boats for 21 years. A noted designer of custom-built racing boats and yachts, he is responsible for the under-body and structural design of the new GLOBE flotilla.


BROOKS STEVENS, one of America's leading stylists, has a broad background of designing boats, as well as auto-mobiles, aircraft, and streamlined trains. His designs for GLOBE boats feature clean, aerodynamic hull styling with a definite modern touch.


WORKING WITH THESE MEN are the GLOBE engineers and craftsmen whose skill and experience in precision-built aircraft as well as other manufacturing combine to bring you America's finest line of inboard and outboard boats.


THE GLOBE 14-FOOT SUPER DELUXE OUTBOARD RUNABOUT Seating capacity: 5


people. Speeds: up to 35 m.p.h. with 22 h.p. en-gine; corresponding speeds with smaller engines. (Standard runabout also offered.)


GLOBE'S Revolutionary new design


is based upon the convex section and hard chine, now applied for the first time to popular-priced boats. This hull form has been tested and proved in use both on expensive custom-built hulls and on special-purpose warcraft built for the Allied navies. This design provides a non-pounding, extremely dry, level-riding boat, which is completely maneuverable.
