FIRST LOOK. The Prestige F4.9 has a sleek profile, ergonomic layout and eco-conscious construction. The forward master cabin features a minimalistic design, while an aft galley keeps you engaged with guests, whether you're cooking or mixing drinks.

THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS. The Formula 350 Crossover Bowrider blends the convenience of a bowrider with the comfort of a cruiser. With its triple outboard power, spacious cockpit and cabin below, she is a good fit for those looking for excellent days on the water in an excellent boat.
TEST & FEATURES VIDEO. The SeaWell 290CC aims at providing everything anglers need — and nothing they don’t — to keep the price competitive. Her cockpit is deeper than many of similar LOA CCs thanks to her generous freeboard and the 21.5- degree deadrise provides an easy ride at speed in a mild chop.
PRE-OWNED YACHT SPOTLIGHT. This Sabre 48 features a Seakeeper for stability, a hydraulic swim platform, a custom galley and crew quarters plus a Yacht Controller for easy handling. This meticulously maintained yacht is ready to cruise. We previously stated an incorrect engine package. She comes with a pair of Volvo Penta D8 IPS 700s.
PRODUCT REVIEW. The Sionyx Aurora is a night vision handheld camera designed for boaters. Unlike bulky night vision goggles, the Aurora fits in your palm and boasts a color night vision mode, GPS and Wi-Fi phone app control. Navigate confidently at night, see fellow boaters clearly and capture cool nighttime footage.
