Tenders and Toys

Making Waves: The Icon Aircraft A5

When the FAA approved the creation of a Light Sport Aircraft category, as well as the Sport Pilot License, it opened up a world of consumer-available aircraft. Icon Aircraft, a Southern California-based company, offers an attractive option.

Making Waves: Kayaks and the Clear Blue Sea

Clear Blue Hawaii began developing kayaks in 2002. There are now three basic models that cover a spectrum of uses. One of those, the Napali, is innovative not only for its clear urethane construction, carbon Kevlar frame and light weight (approximately 26 pounds), but for its collapsible design.

Technology and Toys

Get where you’re going safer with a new update from Navionics and, once you get there, try out a new product from Nocqua that will light up your night.

Tenders

Check out three tenders that could be the next boat you stow on the yacht. Zodiac, Yellowfin and Carbon Craft give us an array of tenders for yachts from 60 to 600 feet.

Over the Waves and Under

Whether you want to cruise over the water from yacht to shore or explore the ecosystems hidden deep under the waves, this issue has something for you.

Tender Ashore in Style

Twenty years ago, Boston Whalers and RIBs were as popular with large-yacht buyers as they were with boaters who owned just these craft. They served as occasional toys or were used for utilitarian purposes by the mothership’s crew, and sometimes both. The more yachts grew in size, though, the more time they started spending at anchor. Suddenly, owners found themselves needing a better way of getting to and from shore.

Tenders Times Three

Looking for a new tender? Why not consider these options from Grand-Craft, Cherubini and Belzona?

Making Waves: Nouvoyage Limo Tender

This Michael Peters–designed Nouvoyage Limousine Tender 33 may become the first amphibious craft to combine luxury with remarkable speed both on land and in the water: 85 and 32.2 mph, respectively.

Making Waves: Gibbs Quadski

This craft, recently shown at the Fort Lauderdale and Miami shows, will shatter the notion that an amphibious craft can only do one thing well. Gibbs reports the Quadski’s top speed on land and water to be about 45 mph.
