FLIPPING THE SWITCH
Boating

FLIPPING THE SWITCH

Much reporting focuses on reasons why one might choose electric marine power. The issues of range, speed, noise levels, winterizing and ethanol challenges, lake restrictions, environmental concerns and more all must be resolved on an individual basis. Little gets said about how a boater choosing to repower with electric actually gets that accomplished. Is it DIY? And if not, how does it get done?

STICKING POINTS - Anchoring alternatives, and why you will always need a traditional anchor.

TIARA EX 60

Wanting to create a new flagship for its fleet, someone at Tiara obviously said, \"Go big or go home.\" And thus was born the largest and most luxurious Tiara ever built: an inboard IPS-powered yacht that, at 60 feet, 3 inches, is the queen of the fleet by a full 10 feet. Tiara also created a new EX line, which I can only assume stands for excellent or exceptional.
