DECEMBER NEWSLETTER
HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM INTREPID!
It’s hard to believe that 2021 is almost over. Although we’ve faced many challenges throughout the year, Intrepid has experienced so many triumphs that are making this holiday season even more meaningful.
 
Thanks to you, Intrepid has experienced record-breaking sales of our “One of a kind. One at a time.” powerboats. The reception of our new models has been so gratifying. We continue to make refinements to our impressive 427 Nomad FE, and will unveil more new models in 2022 thanks to our exciting new partnership with MarineMax.
 
Special thanks to Mercury Marine for their continued collaboration. They have powered much of our success this year and are a big part of why Intrepids are among the most electrifying powerboats on the water today.
 
Happy Holidays everyone!
MARKET REPORT
LOOKING BACK ON 2021
As we wrap up 2021, it’s hard not to reflect at what an unbelievable year it has been … not just for us but the entire industry. Just when we thought the challenges of 2020 were behind us all, 2021 had even greater challenges for our company and our customers.
 
But it didn’t matter! I’m very proud to say that here at Intrepid we overcame every obstacle and challenge that came our way. And I believe that persevering made us all better and positioned us to be even stronger in the future.
 
I’m extremely proud of everyone that represents Intrepid Powerboats, and how the team fought daily to crush every challenge thrown our way in 2020 and 2021. Bring on 2022! There are so many exciting things in the works and coming your way very soon.
SEASONS GREETINGS
Wishing everyone and their families a very joyous Holiday and Christmas season. And, a very happy New Year to all! 
FEATURED MODEL
345 VALOR
Length 34' 6" | Beam 10' 6" | Fuel Capacity 320 Gallons | Water 30 Gallons
Featured model this month is the 345 Valor. It has the same layout, features and luxury of its big brother, the 409 Valor, but in a smaller size.
 
The 345 Valor has all the amenities you need to have a great time on the water. The aft seating easily folds up when you want extra room for fishing. Helm seat boasts a slide-out cooler underneath. The large helm has plenty of room for electronics. Those who want a little extra visibility from the cockpit will appreciate the high/low actuating platform. And there’s an abundance of forward seating.
 
Below, the cabin offers everything you want in an overnight boat: refrigerator, microwave, galley storage, bow section with hull-side windows. The generous seating area with high/low table transitions to a queen-size berth, and there’s a separate head with shower.
THE CAPTAIN'S CORNER
CELEBRATING ON THE WATER
It’s hard to believe that 2021 is almost over. It seems like it just started! Lots of good things have happened this year, and we are grateful for all of that.
Seminole Hard Rock Winterfest® Boat Parade
In Tampa Bay, our sports teams have done well, and there have been boat parades as part of the celebrations for their successes. December is the month for Christmas boat parades and there are plenty of them in Florida. The Seminole Hard Rock Winterfest® Boat Parade celebrated its 50th anniversary this year and, as always, was quite a show. There are lots of cities and towns throughout the country that host holiday boat parades, so if you missed them this year, be sure to mark your calendar for 2022.
NEW OWNER'S MANUAL
FOR THE 427 NOMAD FE
Mike Plante and I got together last month to film a video owner’s manual for our newest model, the 427 Nomad FE. He really is the best with a camera and is very patient with me when we must shoot multiple takes! The end-product of our work is very informative and explains systems and operation of this vessel that is new to our fleet.
As with the other video owner’s manuals we’ve made, there is a link to it on the overview page for this model on our website. You can also view it at the link below.  
SAFETY TIP
This month’s safety tip explains the Engine Cut-Off Switch (ECOS) that is installed on all Intepids. This is the “lanyard” that will shut your engines down if the helmsman falls or becomes disabled while operating the boat. It is a great safety feature, but only if it is clipped to a strong point on your clothing or life jacket. Use of the ECOS on boats less than 26 feet became mandatory on April 1, 2021. I feel it’s prudent to use this feature on all of our boats, especially when out alone.
You can see instructions on use of this safety switch on our 438 Evolution by clicking below:
SPECIAL THANKS AND
HOLIDAY WISHES
Thanks to all for your friendship and loyalty to our brand. The Intrepid team works hard at making the boats that we build very special. As always, I invite anyone who’s interested in what we do to come to see us in Largo so that we can show you how our boats become One of a Kind. One at a Time.” 
 
Best wishes to everyone for a very Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year. We look forward to serving you in 2022.

Happy Boating
