Navico aims to shift that paradigm with its Fathom e-Power system.

Typically, when a fastener fails on a boat, it pulls out of the wood or fiberglass that it was screwed into. There are many causes for this failure: shock loading, fatigued from being pulled on one too many times, or moisture softening the wood.

That's because so many people took their first-ever boat ride aboard a small, single-engine boat meant for short day trips that when the time comes to get their own boat, the classic boat style comes to mind.
