If you're in Manhattan and want to stroll through a remarkable piece of history, head down to Pier 25 at Hudson River Park and meet the crew of the Robert L. Gray. We profiled this 90-year-old ship, her owner and captain in the January issue of Power & Motoryacht, and we posted a fascinating walkthrough of the vessel on our YouTube channel too. But she's way cooler in person. She'll be at the pier through January, so get moving.

If you happen to have the Düsseldorf boat show on your agenda, Wellcraft will be premiering a pair of new 28-footers on January 17th. The 28 T-Top and 28 Explorer will be the first of four layouts whose modular aft sections should offer plenty of configurations for angling, entertainment and overnight adventuring. Wellcraft is promising a super-strong and lightweight stepped hull and plenty of power from twin Mercury 200's or a single 300. They'll debut the line in the U.S. at the Miami Boat show Feb. 12-16—and we'll be looking to take one for a sea trial in short order.

If this isn’t a way to foil Monday malice, what is? We don’t spend much time on jet boats here at Power & Motoryacht, but we’re getting the feeling we’re missing out on a LOT of fun… Should we be testing jet boats (and jet-boat accoutrements)? Let us know!
