Tom Ford, from Huntersville, N.C., is a boater who started out like a lot of people with a fiberglass runabout background.

Sometimes I feel like a walrus heaving itself out of the water when I try to gracefully get back in the boat after tubing.

As you step onboard there is just something very inviting about this pontoon; maybe it’s just how the comfortable-looking furniture reminds us all of being at home.

Whether you're looking for a low- to mid-range outboard for leisurely travel across the water, or you are in need of some extra muscle to make wake, Suzuki has an arsenal of motors to suit whatever needs you may have.

The fact that there's nothing better than enjoying the warmer months of spring and summer in a boat has been proven over and over again.

"I've owned a couple of boats in my life, but I decided to get a family boat..."

What do you do when you’re an established fiberglass boat manufacturer and the pontoon segment of the boating industry is hot?

“What do we need if we want to try fishing from our boat?” is a question I get asked, in one form or another, on a regular basis by boat owners who use their craft for cruising or watersports other than fishing.

The team at PDB has breaking news from our friends at BoatUS, who are urging us to get politically involved with a new bill designed to establish safer boating fuel standards.

Everyone here at PDB is glad to hear this bit of exciting news: Premier Marine is sharing their trade secret to help prevent spreading invasive species.

Not only does JC successfully break away from the traditional-looking square pontoon boat, but it’s clear the engineers who design these boats actually spend a lot of time on the water too.

Though I won’t go into exact ages (partly because I can’t count that high on Mondays), most of the team here at PDB has been around the block a few times. You could say we know a good product when we see one.
