Brunswick CorporationBrunswick Corporation, the world’s largest recreational marine manufacturer, has been named one of America’s Most Responsible Companies by Newsweek magazine for the third consecutive year. From the thousands U.S. companies considered for this honor, only 500 made the Newsweek list of honorees.

The award caps a year of honors and accolades earned by Brunswick for its industry-leading environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) efforts. In 2022, the company was also recognized by Forbes as one of the World’s Best Employers, America’s Best Large Employers, America’s Best Employers for Veterans, and America’s Best Employers for Diversity; additionally, its Mercury Marine division recently earned a 12th consecutive Green Masters designation for sustainable business practices and initiatives from the Wisconsin Sustainable Business Council.

“We are delighted to see our long-term commitment to sustainability and diversity, equity and inclusion recognized with this prestigious award,” said Dave Foulkes, Brunswick Corporation CEO. “These initiatives are pillars of our strategy and culture at Brunswick.”

America’s Most Responsible Companies were selected based on publicly available key performance indicators derived from Corporate Social Responsibility Reports, Sustainability Reports, and Corporate Citizenship Reports as well as an independent survey. The KPIs focused on company performance in the environmental, social, and corporate governance areas, while the independent survey asked U.S. citizens about their perception of company activities related to corporate social responsibility. The award recognizes U.S. companies for their ongoing commitment to corporate social responsibility, particularly related to ESG initiatives.

Glomex TV

Televisions on a boat are increasingly commonplace. With the simple-to-install Glomex Avior VT300 Omnidirectional TV/FM antenna from GA Communications, it's never been easier to bring analog and digital broadcasts onboard—at a price that's hard to ignore.

The most noticeable feature of the Avior VT300 antenna is its compact white, anti-yellowing radome. At only 4" dia. x 8" H and 8.8 oz., it's specifically made for smaller boats that can't accommodate large TV antenna domes and only need short range reception, depending on height and conditions. The amplifier allows the antenna to have an increase in gain with a 24.5 dB average to receive vertical and horizontal polarized TV signals simultaneously from 360°.
