Focus on Product Updates and Safety
As we near the Fall boating season maybe you are taking stock of the things on your vessel that may need replacing or updating. This week we have a focus on a few marine products that may be of interest. Fugawi has launched Quilted Raster Charts which are promising the look and feel of vector charts with the unmatched detail and familiarity of paper charts. Marine heaters are definitely hot this time of year as well and we have some for you to review. For the gadget heads there are new sailing watches from Ronstan which may catch your eye. These stories combined with a compelling account of Electric Shock Drowning and the importance of spreading the word to prevent it and more give you lots to sink your teeth into with this issue of CY Onboard. Happy Reading!
