Calm Seas | Fatal Collision | 800 NM Range | Storm at Haulover - 7/24/2026

CARBON, NOT FIBERGLASS Palm Beach builds the GT60 on a carbon fiber V-Warp hull that keeps her level past 40 knots on twin 750-hp IPS950s. The salon and cockpit share one uninterrupted deck level. Below, a full-beam midship master and optional galley-down layout give owners real configuration flexibility.
 

LONG REACH A W72 powercat with a 32'8" beam changes what a 72-footer can do. The one-level main deck flows straight to the bow, while the bridge can be open or enclosed depending on the owner's priorities. In testing she cruised most efficiently at 11.5 knots for a calculated range approaching 800 nautical miles with reserve.
 

KEY WEST READY Located in Key West, Florida, this 2025 Jupiter 32 FS has 63 hours on twin Yamaha 350s under warranty through October 2030. She also carries joystick control, dual 16-inch Garmin displays, open-array radar and Seakeeper Ride tabs.
 

ON THE WATER A driver has to demonstrate practical skills before getting a license. Recreational boaters generally don't. This article looks at on-the-water instruction, from docking and close-quarters handling to offshore operation, with courses available nationwide through certified instructors.
 

STORM COMING An approaching storm turns Haulover Inlet into a washing machine. Some captains time the waves well. Others discover just how quickly a routine inlet run can become an expensive lesson as bows launch clear of the water and land hard.
 

UNDER INVESTIGATION Three sailors died after a sailing yacht collided with a passenger catamaran carrying 125 people off Croatia's Dalmatian coast. The sea was reported calm, the yacht sank quickly, and authorities continue investigating what led to the collision in one of the Adriatic's busiest waterways.
