3,500-NM RANGE The Eighty 3 pairs transatlantic range with a layout built around extended time aboard. A solid foredeck, oversized flybridge, and drop-down owner's balcony reflect a boat intended to spend weeks rather than weekends away from shore.

SOCIAL CC The most unusual feature on the Sea Pro 245 Sandbar is how family friendly she is. By relocating the livewell, Sea Pro created room for a proper transom bench, changing the flow of the cockpit and making the boat feel more comfortable. 

FOUR STATEROOMS LA-Z-BUOY is a 2015 Princess 72 lying in Long Beach, California. Twin CAT C32s with 768 hours cruise her at 28 knots. Four staterooms, crew quarters with full head, zero-speed stabilizers, Starlink, and a hydraulic swim platform. Bottom paint, teak refresh, and full engine service all completed within the last eight months.

THE BIG BOATING SECRET is that most people don't use their boats as much as they think they will -- kids' soccer games, household maintenance, or Aunt Mary's 95th birthday party often get in the way. Even members of mass small-boat clubs who pay annual and monthly fees find the boats are always booked when they want them (usually because they have 13 members per boat). The Sovereign Boat Fleet solves the problem: pay for only the days you use the boat! If you don't use it, you don't pay!

STEAMBOATS FIRST Long before highways connected the region, visitors arrived at Colonial Beach by steamboat. Today the town remains a favored stop for cruisers heading toward Washington, D.C., combining full-service marinas with a waterfront district that's easy to explore on foot.
