Here’s what’s floating around the boating world this week: Big Drop BoatWorks is holding a logo competition for their new business. We interview Ben Tester at RIVTEK Boats on how he’s looking to upend the raft industry (our words, not his...). American Whitewater is looking to secure safe and lawful river passage in Colorado. Emo Electric reviews FLUX Marine’s 100hp Electric Outboard. Chesapeake Light Craft dropped a must-read Complete Guide to Mixing Epoxy for builders, fixers and tinkerers working with small craft. “If you’ve ever mixed epoxy for anything remotely boat-related, you already know the deal: it’s equal parts chemistry experiment and quiet prayer.” Small Craft Sales is offering free listings plus a chance to win $250 for your favorite boat company of choice. Sawyer Paddles and Oars is unloading some floor boats here and here.
