George Poveromo, host of George Poveromo’s World of Saltwater Fishing calls it the “most magnificent boat in MAKO history.” With a ring-deck design, a port tuna door, massive amounts of storage and a triple-outboard capacity of 1050 horsepower, the all-new 334 CC lives ...

Around two years ago the German builder Bavaria Yachts imported its acclaimed Virtess 420 Fly, a boat that had previously garnered a European Boat of the Year award.

In our June issue, I wrote a feature entitled "Totally Tubular," which lays out eight traits of the modern pontoon boat. In it, I mentioned that a farmer from Minnesota named Ambrose Weeres is largely credited with creating the first pontoon in 1952. In response to that, an alert reader named Denny Trooien sent in the attached newspaper clipping from the July 1, 1939 edi...

A new range of Williams tenders will be launched in 2016 with smaller, lighter BRP engines, the firm has announced. Williams Performance Tenders recently confirmed that it had renewed its deal with BRP to supply engines for its jet-powered range, but dropped a key hint.

While examining the transom of the Outerlimits SL 41 before our sea trial, we noticed that the Mercury Racing 380S K-Plane trim tabs were installed horizontally rather than parallel with the V-shape of the boat’s bottom. In the go-fast world, riggers and throttle men have long argued the merits of having the tabs in this position because it requires less tab adjustment ...

This boat is so big that, had we not known Whaler’s Outrage lineup of center-consoles, we could have easily mistaken it for an express. As it stands, the new 420 Outrage is not only one of the largest center-consoles on the market, but also the largest Boston Whaler ever built. With a 42-foot-6-inch length overall and a 13-foot beam, it is 5 feet longer and 1 foot 6 inch...
When the original Bayliner Element made its debut a few years back, we found a lot of things to like about it, most notably how its production signified Bayliner’s commitment to keeping boating easy and affordable. One thing we didn’t love about it was its size; with its 16 feet and 60 hp outboard we could see boaters easily outgrowing it. While that original Element is ...
Without a doubt the four new Mercury Racing Verado 400R outboards installed on the transom of the 2015 Nor-Tech 390 Sport Open we tested grabbed our attention, especially at the top speed of 92.2 mph they helped deliver at 7,000 rpm. We were just as interested in the comfort-focused upgrades that Nor-Tech has made to this mega-console boat since we tested the 2014 versio...
