NOTES AND TALKING POINTS

From the Helm, Boating Broadcast is brought to you by MarineMax, the nation’s largest boat retailer.

HEADLINES: 

First up, Tige Boats recently unveiled the legendary Z3, representing 30 years of innovation and celebrating the best-selling Tige Model of all time. Charlie Pigeon, Owner and CEO of Tige Boats, said in a statement, "The original Z3 was a staple for Tige for many years, with thousands of owners worldwide, so bringing it back on the cusp of our 30th anniversary is a unique and nostalgic accomplishment. Our team was passionate about carrying on the legacy and tradition of the original Z3 with today's technology and styling. We're confident that our past, current, and future Z3 owners are going to love it as much as we do." Learn more about the Tige brand.

Next, learn four ways to fish a wreck from Sport Fishing Magazine. From the bottom to the top, take advantage of every inch of water around artificial reefs, including bottom bouncing, dancing a jig, trolling, or casting calls. Need a fishing boat? Search available models.

Finally, the Seakeeper 1 was one of the most researched products and services of 2020 on BoatTEST.com.

It brought gyroscopic stabilization to boats as small as 23-feet and runs on 12 volts, so no generator is needed. With a small envelope and flush-mount design, the Seakeeper 1 permits installation on a boat up to 30'. Captain Steve Larivee wouldn't be surprised if boat builders start designing new 30-ft models with a dedicated installation location. See a full interview with the Seakeeper team.
