NEW 427 NOMAD FE SHINES AT DEBUT IN FLORIDA KEYS
In the midst of all the fun and camaraderie of the annual Rendezvous celebration, the Intrepid Nation was thrilled by the opportunity to experience our new 427 Nomad FE in person. Boaters loved the model’s lines of sight and raved about how quiet the engines are.
 
Speaking of engines, we’ll be conducting sea trials with different engine configurations out of our Dania, Florida location for a number of weeks. Contact us if you’d like to get out on the water in this innovative design!
 
Watch the video above for my update, and check out more impressions of the Rendezvous from Vice President of Sales Alex Rizo, and a suggested boating book from Joe Brenna at The Captain’s Corner.

RENDEZVOUS IS INTREPID NATION'S BIGGEST CELEBRATION EVER
Spending three days with the Intrepid Nation at our Rendezvous was the highlight of my year. The celebration was double the size and double the fun from 2019, and we’re already talking about going even bigger for the 2022 Rendezvous.
 
In addition to all of the dining, parties and aquatic adventures we enjoyed at Hawks Cay Resort, the Intrepid team was proud to debut our newest 2021 lineup and benefited greatly from hearing your enthusiasm and input as you toured these exciting models. We work hard to build these boats for you and your excitement makes it all worthwhile!

THE CAPTAIN'S CORNER
CLASSIC BOATING BOOK IS GREAT SUMMERTIME READING
Book was originally written at the request of President Franklin Roosevelt
I had the pleasure of spending a weekend at Hawks Cay in the Florida Keys recently for our 2021 Intrepid Owner’s Rendezvous. Everyone enjoyed themselves immensely. We introduced our new 427 Nomad and all I can say is WOW! You’ll understand once you see it.
Charles Chapman wrote his first edition of Piloting, Seamanship, and Small Boat Handling in 1922. It has been a comprehensive guide to skills needed to handle boats in a safe and courteous manner for nearly a hundred years now and truly is

"The Bible of Boating."
It covers everything that anyone owning or operating a boat might need to know. I recommend having this work in your library. It is available in hard copy, or an eBook in the different forums that offer electronic books.

One of the chapters in Chapman’s book is “The Art of Anchoring”. It explains all aspects of anchoring in fine detail. At the end of the day though, the most important thing is to have your boat “stay put”. One of the chapters in our video owner’s manuals explains how to properly operate the anchoring system on your Intrepid. The link below covers this subject and has some tips on how best to use your windlass most effectively.
