A test featuring 2003 models of engines from major manufacturers, like Honda, Johnson, Mercury and Suzuki, Tohatsu and Yamaha that offer a 15-horse power engine in the U.S. is presented. There were no clear winners from the brand testing but the features of each and every engine were noteworthy with the quietest average for Honda's four-stroke 15-horsepower engine.

Boat review: A Different Drummer

Article Abstract:

The Etap 37s, priced at $200,000 is a Mortain and Mavrikios design that clearly balances a boat's looks, performance, and accommodation to meet the unchanging needs of sailors. Its sailboats feature double hulls filled with high-quality closed-cell foam that provides great shock absorption to resist skin failure in case the boat bumps bottom, docks, or other craft.
