Fast in Miami, and fast in Indiana
With the deep cold and record snow fall at home in Rhode Island it was great to fly South and film a few days at the Miami Boat Show. I have been filming this show for years and the manufactures pull out all the stops launching cool gear and their hot new boats. With a lot of the boats in the water we get a chance to film a few running which is a blast, and my forte, be it sail or power. Check out this boats.com First Look Video of the 2015 Mercury Verado 400 Racing. There are four…

Dusseldorf Boat Show 2015
Just back from a fantastic time at the Dusseldorf boat show. If you are not familiar with this show it is the biggest indoor boat show in the world. Seventeen display halls with different product in each hall. I was at the show filming new product releases. We shot 44 videos in three days of filming. Yup, it was a fun, flat out schedule. Over the last 47 years I have been to most of the boat shows in North America and a bunch in Europe. This show has the most diverse range of products and some of the coolest…

PCS Blog back up
Sorry for the blog being down it was hacked. This has become a problem with all wordpress blogs. It has been a while since my last post and a lot has happened. Here is a shot bringing back my new (to me) Kincora an Express 27 back from Maine. I sailed up single handed with a friend John Manderson who also sailed up single handed with his Olson 30. A beat to the Cape Cod Canal then spinnaker runs all the way to Blue Hill Maine. Just what our boats love. One day we had 6 hrs of 22-26 kts…
