Seeing Straight With Enhanced Eyesight

Optics Optimized

WHETHER TRYING TO CLIMB THE LEADER BOARD or simply out for a fun afternoon on the water, anglers will do whatever they can to increase their odds of success. When it comes to tackle, gear and electronics, many of the latest products are incredibly advantageous. However, amid the smorgasbord of so-called must haves the importance of marine binoculars is often overlooked.

Unfortunately, we can’t all equip our vessels with today’s incredibly advanced radar systems that provide valuable benefits day in and day out. Though boaters in any venue, whether equipped with radar or not, should have a pair of binoculars at the ready to enhance situational awareness. Even though you may not use them during every outing, binoculars provide enhanced vision and are beneficial in more ways than one.

No matter the manufacturer, there are several characteristics all binoculars intended for marine functionality have in common. With a few exceptions, marine binoculars provide 7x magnification and 50mm lenses, often denoted as 7x50. The 50mm glass optics are relatively large, but this size provides several advantages to mariners. Most notably, the larger objective is perfectly suited for gathering plenty of light so that the field of view is illuminated at all hours of the day, including those that provide periods of low light. Furthermore, the 50mm lenses provide a larger image at the eyepiece.

A Whole Different Animal - Wild Cats that Got the Cream

MOST ANGLERS HAVE STRONG BELIEFS ABOUT WHAT HULL TYPE IS BEST. Running hard in rough water requires a seaworthy platform with the strength and stability to keep you safe, comfortable and dry. Among the different trends that have consequently become evident from the evolution of center consoles, boat builders are cornering a new niche of complex and competitive catamarans harnessing more outboard power than ever before. Breaking the barrier with innovative hull designs and deck layouts, the newest catamarans offer unobstructed fishability while providing increased fuel economy and speed per applied horsepower.

The Lotus Effect - Exploring The Science Of The Shine

THERE HAVE BEEN COUNTLESS TECHNOLOGIES AND INNOVATIONS inspired by the animal kingdom, with the science of emulating nature known as biomimetics. Evolution has perfected natural designs and environmental approaches over hundreds of millions of years, providing chemists, biologists and engineers with a perfect platform to advance modern materials and manufacturing processes. Learning the way of the lotus leaf has revealed remarkable self-cleaning properties resulting from the unique flora’s ultrahydrophobic surface architecture producing water droplets in nearly perfect spherical shape.

Underwater LEDs

MY CENTER CONSOLE WAS RECENTLY OUTFITTED with full spectrum color-changing underwater LEDs and I can’t wait to test them out. I’m aware of their ability to attract forage and predator species to the boat from dusk till dawn, but are high intensity LEDs effective at attracting life during the day? If so, what color shines brightest amid the natural light of the sun?
