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.

New Boats: Beneteau Oceanis 34.1 – A Sleek, Good -Looking Delight To Sail

By Katherine Stone

There is nothing more that I enjoy than being with friends and messing about in boats. Messing about in brand-new boats on a champagne sailing day on Lake Ontario at the beginning of the summer doesn’t get any better. To have the new owner, Helmuth Strobel and Anchor Yachts dealer Pancho Jimenez aboard made it even more special, as they can also speak to what they truly enjoy about the boat. We keep our own boat in a harbour that has a long waiting list for boats over 35 feet, so this little gem would definitely fit the bill and feels like a much bigger boat. True to the spirit of the 7th generation Oceanis line, the 34.1 is built in Poland and replaces the 35.1. It is 1,000 lbs lighter, 14 cm narrower and has 29% more sail area.
