Mustang Survival Kids Rev Foam Vest PFD Collection
For kids, wearing an approved PFD when on the water is non-negotiable, and it’s vitally important that the one you choose fits properly and is also comfortable. Mustang had that in mind when they set out to revamp their kids’ line of PFDs. They started by getting rid of PVC, instead swapping it out for GAIA® foam, and added a ventilated mesh back to help keep kids cool on hot days. Upgraded zippers and buckles ensure a better fit in and out of the water, and the vests are softer, more breathable, and easier to move around in. The Rev Collection comes in a variety of colors and sizes to suit a wide range of young boaters.

EP Carry Launches Gen2 Electric Outboard
Built and serviced in North Bend, Washington, EP Carry recently released their Gen2 electric outboard, which retains the ultralight patented design that has made it a favorite for ship-to-shore dinghy work and small boat cruising, while adding meaningful performance upgrades. An advanced controller delivers 22% more propulsive thrust with no increase in size or weight, making it capable of pushing vessels of up to 1,000 pounds and 19 feet with efficiency: exceeding 20 miles on a single charge, or shorter distances at even higher throttle. The motor accepts 12V, 24V, or 36V LFP batteries, giving owners the freedom to upgrade as battery technology improves and costs drop. An optional Bluetooth monitor displays charge levels and power consumption in real time from a smartphone, taking the guesswork out of range management.
