60 MPH BOWRIDER Triple 350-hp Mercury V10 Verados push the Formula 350 Crossover Bowrider to 60.7 mph, and the bracket-mounted outboards tilt fully clear of the water when she is left in a slip. Below the bridge deck, a double berth, mini galley, and wet head give this 35-footer overnight capability.
THREE ROOFS, ONE HULL The Nimbus 12 Series runs three models — W12, T12, and C12 — all on a 41'7" vacuum-infused hull with inverter-powered A/C. The T12 adds a solar-capable T-top and starboard balcony. The W12 brings a Targa roof. The C12 gets a galley-up deck salon. Standard power is twin 300-hp Mercury Verado V8s.

2018 Mares 47 OB Express Catamaran
QUAD OUTBOARD CAT This 2018 Mares 47 Outboard Express Catamaran runs on quad 350-hp Suzuki DF350 outboards, repowered in 2022 with just 218 hours since. Her 14-foot beam and 2-foot draft let her work skinny water most boats this size can't touch, and a forward master with king berth and private head rounds out the layout. Located in St. Pete Beach, FL.
PICK YOUR BOAT The Sovereign Boat Fleet runs a Pursuit DC266 out of Tampa/St. Pete, a Robalo R317 and Axopar 28 out of Bradenton, and an Axopar 29 in Palm Beach.

THE FULL ELECTRONICS LIST From glass helm displays to Starlink offshore internet to lithium power systems and digital switching, the gear behind a modern boat has changed faster than the hulls carrying it. This article runs through the full list: helm, entertainment, connectivity, power, cameras, lighting, and engine integration, system by system, and explores how each has changed the way boats are used.
INSIDE THE COWLING This teardown video goes all the way into an outboard's lower unit and powerhead, tracing how a vertical driveshaft turns piston strokes into thrust. The cooling system gets its own look too: a thermostat and water pump working together to keep the block from overheating, no radiator involved.
A vessel engaged in underwater operations displays the special lights and shapes prescribed for a vessel restricted in her ability to maneuver, and when anchored is not required to also exhibit the normal anchor lights. (Rule 27 and Rule 30)
