DUAL-CONSOLE EVOLUTION Boston Whaler’s 330 Vantage extends the builder’s dual-console line with a 33' platform built around Whaler’s foam-filled “unsinkable” hull construction. Powered by twin 300-hp Mercury Verado V8s, she carries up to 14 aboard and blends day-boat comfort with fish-ready features including rod holders, livewell, insulated fishboxes, and a dive door. Our test boat reached 52.4 mph with optional twin 400-hp Verados.

SPORTFISH REWORKED The Riviera 64 Sports Motor Yacht carries the look of a bluewater sportfisher but adds an enclosed flying bridge and multiple gathering spaces across three levels. Twin MAN V12 diesels producing up to 3,100 total hp pushed her to 33.7 knots during testing. A mezzanine deck links cockpit and galley, while a full-beam master and optional cabin layouts allow owners to tailor the accommodations deck.

WAKE MACHINE MB Sports built the F22 Tomcat for riders who want quick setup and strong tow performance. The 22' hull uses the company’s gravity-fed ballast system to create surf and wakeboard wakes with minimal wait time. An Indmar inboard provides the push, while the cockpit layout leaves space for boards, coolers, and a full crew. This 2018 model is offered at $69,900.

LAST DAYS LEFT Mercury’s “Get 7” program extends coverage on qualifying 2.5–425 hp outboards from the standard three years to seven with factory-backed protection. The offer applies across a wide range of boat packages and repowers through participating dealers. With the promotion ending March 31, we're in the final days.

OUR CORRECTION On Wednesday we showed the previous version of the 243 Fisherman. Boats evolve, and apparently our photo library didn’t get the memo. The image and specs now reflect the current model.

FISHING WITH THE FAMILY At 24'4", the 243 Fisherman sits where coastal runs and offshore trips overlap. Her 20° deep-V hull balances ride comfort and efficiency, while the open cockpit keeps the layout practical for fishing. Convertible bow seating and insulated storage add flexibility for family days aboard, and a 188-gallon fuel tank supports longer runs offshore.

GRAVITY USUALLY WINS Most ramp launches go smoothly. The ones in this Boneheaded Boaters episode do not. A vehicle slips into the water, a trailer meets terrain it was never meant to cross, and a boat roof crew forgets to check bridge clearance. Watch how routine launches turn into slow-motion salvage operations.
