This award was presented and accepted by David Marlow, Chairman, and Michael Cannova, President of Marlow Yachts at the Tranquilo Hotel on October 31 during the 2015 Ft. Lauderdale Boat Show. “It is truly an honour to be presented with this award for our boatbuilding achievement” said David.

The AIM judges wrote, “It is this attention to detail and the underlying philosophy of continuous incremental refinement that explains why Marlow yachts stay competitive for so long: The 62E is engineered without compromise.”

 Marlow Explorers are built at an environmentally green factory in Xiamen, China. As each vessel is completed at the factory, she undergoes rigorous quality controls to assure all performance, seaworthiness, and value is to the highest Marlow standards. Each vessel is manned by top factory personnel and sea trialed over 100 miles on the China Sea to the Xiamen Port. The capable team stays with the yacht to monitor the load and stow on the mother ship to ensure a safe travel to the USA.

Recently, factory personnel were on hand at the Xiamen Port to oversee four Marlow Explorers waiting to be loaded on the transport ship and journey to the USA where the Marlow team will offload and prepare these vessels for the Miami International Boat Show on February 12. As you can see by the photo, the Marlow China staff take great pride in being their absolute best from start to finish.

Tahiti—Updates from Paradise

By Zuzana Prochaska

I’ve been to Tahiti seven times—six on charter and once as crew for a couple of yachties. Over the 25 years that I’ve been visiting, it’s changed dramatically. Yet, inexplicably, it has also stayed the same.

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:

…you understand now why you came this way.
