Ferretti 800

This new 80-footer is sleeker than you’re accustomed, but still a Ferretti in every way.

High Voltage. High seas.

A Transatlantic crossing aboard a solar-electric power cat proves just how far Silent Yachts has come.

A vintage-style illustration split into two contrasting scenes. On the left, a teenage boy looks down into a tiny, open 13-foot wooden motorboat filled with supplies. On the right, a massive steel-hulled naval warship cruises past under a dramatic sky.

A Boy and a Boat

In 1957, teenager Tom Ireland set out on a 1,500-mile journey from Long Island to Miami aboard a 13-foot Speedliner with a 25-hp outboard. What happened next even Mark Twain couldn’t make up.

Sunseeker 82 Ocean

It may be a cliché, but the second hull in the British builder’s acclaimed Ocean line is a small superyacht with more social spaces than you can count.

A medium shot from inside an enclosed boat helm station featuring a smiling, bearded man sitting at the steering wheel. He is looking off to the right, wearing blue-mirrored sunglasses, a blue baseball cap underneath a grey beanie, and a hooded blue digital-camouflage jacket. Large glass windows and an overhead skylight panel surround the cabin, offering a view out over choppy water toward a distant, tree-lined shoreline under a bright sky.

Charter Ready, Life Proof

Rain, wind, hail, sleet, snow, Nor’easter, or shine, Life Proof proves itself as a model water taxi.

An aerial, high-angle three-quarter shot of a white center-console power catamaran cruising through green water, leaving a foaming white wake behind its twin hulls. Two men are on board, with the driver at the helm station beneath a black T-top canopy. The boat features tan upholstered seating, including an open bow lounge area and a rear-facing cockpit bench. The aft deck is finished with a light brown faux-teak swim platform extension flanking twin black outboard engines.

Volare Artemis 23

A scrappy start-up in South Carolina set out to build an electric boat that—they hope—can go the distance.
