The HydroStream Power Tour really illustrated just how active and passionate HydroStream owners still are today, with Pipkorn himself attending with his Virage!

A Look Back at an Extraordinary Day in Marine History ▼ Major product launches are huge affairs, often resembling a stage show at an arena rock concert. They have to be, in order to achieve the maximum impact, leaving members of the press feeling not only positively impressed, but exhilarated. However, no matter how impressive the press event, if the star of the show - the product being introduced - does not match or even exceed the buildup of excitement, the entire experience falls flat, and that's not the impression that any manufacturer wants to leave in the minds of the boating industry press.

The Supercharged Super-Outboard That Has No Equal ▼ Fifteen years ago when Mercury Marine introduced the revolutionary Verado outboard, it not only signified a new approach to four-stroke engine potential, but it was also a bold insight into Mercury’s charted trajectory for future outboard engine development. Mercury was going to apply their engineering mastery toward developing new technologies, not just making existing outboard engine designs better, but by reinventing the four-stroke outboard entirely. The new Mercury Racing 450R is not only a stunning example of the culmination of that effort, but a product that is just as closely identified with all of Mercury Racing’s legendary race-driven history of defining what a high-performance outboard is. The 450R is simply an engine that has no equal. To put it another way, it is a lean, mean, dopamine-producing machine.
A Spectacular Recovery Set In Motion by a Rigging Error ▼ In relation to boating, this is probably one of the most fascinating series of events captured on video that I have ever seen. This is an ongoing situation and I will be following up with many more details and developments. For now, have a look at what I feel is an incredible story of events.
Today I spoke with Alfred Montaner, who owns Luxury Rib Tenders, which is a company based in Miami that specializes in restoring rigid inflatable boats. His scope of talents covers seemingly every type of RIB, from yacht tenders to very high-end law enforcement types. He was taking a 36-foot Fluid 10M "Black Betty" RIB for a sea trial, which involved running the boat in the kind of conditions it was designed for. The Fluid 10M being trialed is powered by two 300HP Mercury Verado outboards, however the boat is designed to handle triple outboards, if required.

I first became intimately acquainted with the Evinrude E-TEC engines in 2006, at an Evinrude press event in Key Largo, Florida. It was at the 2003 February Miami International Boat Show that Bombardier Recreational Products first introduced the E-TEC engines in

Mercury's Legendary Testing Location ▼ It was the secret test facility where Kiekhaefer Marine conducted its performance testing and experiments. The Mercury Skunk Works, so to say. Although Lake X was really not a secret, the lake itself, which is actually called Lake Conlin, was not very easy to reach, especially

An Incredible Decade: Part One▼ I remember the very first time I arrived at the Westgate River Ranch in 2005. I had just moved to Florida in late-2003, so the world of palm trees, alligators, and best of all, year-round boating still had me in a state of constant
