Digital

Technology is an amazing thing. Thanks to

smartphone advancements, the editors have

been live-streaming to our Facebook page

(pmymag.com/facebook) while reporting

from the field. From boat shows to boat and

gear tests, we're doubling down on our goal

of keeping you the most informed boater on

the dock, now up to the minute. Some of our

new videos feature:

•Discussing boat buying trends with

Director of Marketing for HMY Yachts, Rob

Bowman.

•A review of the Vicem 46IPS (page 40)

•A boat show collision that could have, and

should have, been avoided.

•A review of a new (to the United States)

builder and boat in the Schaefer 640.

•An exclusive test of the Hunt 72.

AND ... WE'RE LIVE
