Captain's Report
Fleming Yachts 78:
Onboard Comfort w/Serious Cruising Features
The Fleming Yachts 78 is not only a substantial oceangoing yacht, she also makes a comfortable long-term liveaboard. Her salon takes advantage of the 21'5" (6.53 m) beam while still leaving generous side decks guarded by high bulwarks and rails to make for easy passage fore and aft in a seaway. The flybridge has a two-level design that elevates the operator for better sightlines, while protecting the entertainment area from excessive wind and spray.

Evinrude iDock:
Intuitive Control for Multi-Outboard Boats
We tested the Evinrude iDock system on a luxury twin-engine pontoon as well as a center console, and found it exceptionally easy to operate on both. The system gives intuitive low-speed control for multiple Evinrude E-TEC outboard setups, even for beginning captains. Push the joystick in any direction and the boat goes that direction; twist it and the boat rotates in place.
