If you’re trying to learn the basics as a new boater, or even if you just need a brushup, this is a good way to get started.

Passagemaker magazine has archived the featured educational seminars and online demonstrations of products, services and boating techniques.

In this episode, Andrew Parkinson and Phil Friedman unpack the origins of the word "trawler."

Beneteau embarks on its first expedition line with Project E.

Buying and selling a recreational marine vessel can be, in some cases, even more complicated and problematic than a real estate transaction.

My favorite Crown Jewel on all the Chesapeake is St. Michaels. This charming village with a fabulous anchorage overlooking the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum is without peer.

Organizers said the event, held September 15 through 18, is the largest boat show in New England and it kicks off the fall boat show season. The show provides visitors from around the world a venue to see the latest boats and products from hundreds of manufacturers and dealers.

Having the opportunity to imagine and oversee the building of my own ideal Inside Passage vessel has been exquisitely educational—initiating a chain of engaging design, building, voyaging, and teaching adventures.

The new model is called the 50 Open, and it will feature a continuous elevation from the cockpit, all the way through to the pilothouse. The open layout is a first for the brand.

There have been some great success stories in the realm of green boat-building, but hyrbids continue to be imperfect and in uncharted territory. Beneteau and Elco may have struck gold.

The smallest model in the line, the new Swift Trawler 30 will start at just under $300,000 and will a have reported range of 200 miles.
