FOUNDER & THE LEAD DESIGNER

Kyle grew up in the middle of nowhere in Minnesota/Wisconsin on the local lakes and rivers, even enjoying the bitter cold winters by snowboarding and snowmobiling. He spent 10+ years working with composites before realizing the error of his plastic ways and going to school for computer aided design and drafting (CAD). A passionate designer, who loves aluminum, he has boat loads of creativity and brings boundless energy to get up and go for it every day.

FOUNDER & THE MEDIA MAN

Ryan grew up in California and is a man of class. He has a clear focus and nobody can dive deeper down a rabbit hole. Ryan has lots of energy and that gives him an incredible creative flow; constantly experimenting and pushing new ideas into his work. He also has style, something the very pragmatic team at GoDu needs at times- and this shows through with a high level of professionalism in his work.

FOUNDER & THE DETAILS GAL

Danielle grew up in Salt Lake City, hiking and exploring the mountains of Utah and has a passion for backpacking and sleeping in the dirt. With time she moved from the mountains to the sea and found that same love for the water. She has great attention to detail and a highly unusual ability to constantly stay on task, making her the only one capable of managing the daily operations of the GoDu Team. We would all just be going in circles of excitement without her.

BRAND AMBASSADOR & THE GoDu ADVENTURER

Captain Lou "Luke" Hodac has an impressive background as a retired U.S. Coast Guard Helicopter pilot with over 25 years of military service. His passion for the water has shown through with decades of boat ownership and a diverse range of 9 different vessels from a classic wooden sailing skiff to the sophistication of a cruising catamaran.

A highly experienced captain, having enjoyed many months-long excursions navigating the waters of the U.S. East coast, Gulf of Mexico, Bahamas, Caribbean and even Fiji! Luke is a passionate seafarer who retired aboard and is traveling the world for the foreseeable future. Nobody loves their GoDu more than Captain Luke and he is both our biggest critic and our biggest fan!
