Sharrow Prop Demos: One Lap of America 

Screen Shot 2026-06-17 at 7.56.58 PM

GET PRIORITY ACCESS Sharrow Marine will be taking its demo boats around America this summer, making live demos and taking custom orders for its revolutionary props in SS, aluminum, for outboard engine props from 6-hp to 350-hp.  Because Ford Motors is now casting props for Sharrow, units can be made in as few as 3 days.  See the magnificent Sharrow props in action, and enter the new age.

NEW Beneteau Antares 11 FLY 

Cruising Without Crew 

BeneteauAntares11FLY

FLYBRIDGE WEEKENDER At just over 36 feet, the Antares 11 Fly is built around the idea that weekends aboard shouldn't require a larger crew or a larger boat. The two-cabin layout includes a private owner's shower, and the outdoor spaces shift easily between passagemaking and time at anchor.

NX Boats NX41 Horizon

Two Private Cabins Below

NX41

FIRST TWO-CABIN NX Twin V10 Mercury outboards push the NX41 Horizon past 50 mph, with a 30 to 31 mph cruise. The transom doubles as an outdoor kitchen with a grill and sink, and a hidden trash bin drops into the engine room so odors stay out of the cabin. Below, this is the first NX model with a private two-cabin layout.

365 Cays, One Chain

The Exumas Done Right

aerial-Exumas-beach-1-8-25

ONE FOR EVERY DAY The Exumas stretch 130 miles and pack 365 named cays into a chain anchored by Great and Little Exuma. From Escobar's submerged plane and Shroud Cay's tidal "Washing Machine" to hurricane holes near George Town, this destination combines oddities, practical cruising advantages, and local traditions, making it as much about the journey between anchorages as the stops themselves.
