Our trek started in a small Colorado garage over 40 years ago. Since then, we’ve been traveling the world on the backs and shoulders of the best photographers on the planet. We’ve learned. We’ve innovated. We’ve become a leader.

For over 40 years, we’ve worked to develop and perfect camera carrying systems – maybe to the point of obsession. But we’ve never stopped at just innovating and improving products. We strongly believe that we owe it to ourselves, and to our industry, to do whatever we possibly can to protect and save the environment.

We take as much pride in this aspect of our business as in the work we put into the products you’ll see.

Sport fishing requires the ability to stop your boat and work an area quickly and quietly as you spot or find your fish. With a Power-Pole shallow water anchor you can stop your boat quickly and quietly with the touch of a button and keep your boat securely in place, even in heavy wind and current. A Power-Pole anchor is also eco-friendly and causes no damage to the environment.

Swift.

A Power-Pole hydraulic anchor extends quickly, fully deploying in under 5 seconds, allowing you to position your boat right where you need it to make the perfect cast. The fast action also gives you the control to stop as soon as you see a fish or hook one, regardless of wind and current conditions. The Power-Pole anchor is the only tool that offers this advantage to anglers.

Silent.

A Power-Pole anchor slips into the water using a smooth and quiet pump system that doesn’t disrupt what’s going on below the surface. The clean design of the patented technology keeps your boat quiet and allows you to fish an area accurately and thoroughly. No more school blows from a noisy clanky anchor or backwash from the trolling motor.

Secure.

The amazingly strong Power-Pole shallow water anchor with Ever-Flex™ technology, combined with ample hydraulic pressure will let you virtually lock your boat down right where you need it, no drift, no tangled lines, and no damage to the environment.

The Beginning: In 1984, Navionics established itself as the pioneer in electronic charting, introduced the first electronic charts to the world, and opened a new era of navigation. Navionics quickly established an early lead in electronic cartography followed by a series of technological innovations, and continues to be a leader in quality, coverage and value.

In 2004, Navionics celebrated its 20th anniversary. We have grown from a small group of engineers and entrepreneurs to a multi-national team operating from four continents that prides itself in developing the best products for safer and easier navigation.

Navionics is very proud of it’s superb cartographic database comprising more than 25,000 charts and port plans; the largest privately owned database of its kind, and the only one using full seamless technology.

Navionics electronic charts provide more information than paper charts and provide it on easy-to-use plug & play cartridges that work with the most popular chart plotters. Navionics works closely with the leading manufacturers of marine electronic plotters to provide the best electronic charts. Navionics charts are now a fundamental tool of navigation, featuring water depths, navaids, obstructions, and other information necessary for safe navigation.

The National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA®) and Boating Writers International (BWI) honored Yamaha Marine Group with its Innovation Award in the outboard motor category for the Yamaha VMAX SHO® during the 20th annual International Boatbuilders’ Exhibition and Conference (IBEX®) at the Kentucky Exposition Center.

The Innovation Awards program is one of the marine industry’s most prestigious honors. It recognizes products that demonstrate innovative distinction from other products, with tangible benefits for both consumers and the marine industry.

The Innovation Awards judging committee is comprised of BWI members who perform product testing throughout the year and have specific expertise in marine OEM products and equipment. “We are delighted with this honor,” said Ben Speciale, Yamaha Marine Group President. “Innovation is a necessity if you want to break paradigms, and that’s what we did with the VMAX SHO®. We have a four stroke with breakthrough weight that out performs two strokes in many ways and provides best-in-class acceleration.” Very seldom in engineering does adding one material to another result in a decrease in weight and an increase in efficiency, but that’s what one innovative new process does in the Yamaha VMAX SHO®. Its powerhead uses plasma fused sleeveless cylinders instead of steel sleeves.

Sixty years have passed since we built the first Skeeter, which just so happened to be the world’s first bass boat. Since then, we’ve been setting the standard, raising the bar and leaving the rest of the boating industry in a wake of innovation.

It was way back in 1948 that Holmes Thurmond designed and launched the first Skeeter boat. By no means was it the last “first” for Skeeter. In 1961, we built the first bass boat from fiberglass, a huge leap forward in performance and durability.

Then in 1975, Skeeter introduced the “Wrangler,” the first V-bottom bass boat ever built. As time passed, Skeeter introduced a host of other innovations: the first full-length rod box, the first bass boat rated for a 150 HP, and the first to introduce “space age” composite materials with the X-Treme and X-Cel composite construction. From then on, cutting-edge technology and attention to detail have been the key ingredients of securing value for long-term owner satisfaction.
