The new Great Harbor Trawler TT35 from Mirage Manufacturing is a unique, outboard-powered liveaboard cruiser. When the father and son design team of Ken and Travis Fickett went looking for the ideal power solution, they turned to Mastry Engine Center and the ultra-efficient Suzuki DF60AV.The choice of Suzuki outboard power for the TT35 has many advantages. Because the engines are outside the hull, it frees-up internal space for storage. Inside, it's exceptionally quiet with no perceptible vibration.

Suzuki Repower Takes A 20-Year Old Boat On Tour

It's not every day a 20-year-old, 32' center console goes on tour. But to show how a well-cared-for boat repowered with state-of-the-art Suzuki outboards rivals a new vessel, at a fraction of the cost, Suzuki RePower by Mastry is hosting Demo Days. From April through June, it's offering sea trial events at nine of its 10 RePower Centers throughout Florida. Subtle details of the 1998 Intrepid 322 Cuddy may betray its age, but its immaculate condition, combined with a proven hull form, made for the ideal demo project.
