NMEA ANNOUNCES 2014 PRODUCT AWARD WINNERS

NMEA

Marine electronics experts nationwide named 11 products in nine categories as winners of the 2014 NMEA Product Awards. 

Once again, Furuno USA was named Manufacturer of the Year–Support. 

The winners were announced at the National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA) International Marine Electronics Conference & Expo, held October 8–11 at the Sanibel Harbour Marriott in Fort Myers, Florida. Nearly 400 leading marine electronics manufacturers, dealers, and distributors, as well as media and others from the United States and abroad, attended the event. 

Category winners are chosen by regional panels of NMEA members from around the country. These experts are hand picked by the NMEA Awards Committee for their extensive knowledge of marine electronics to create a level playing field for all product and manufacturer support nominations.

 “We want to congratulate all of the award recipients,” said NMEA Managing Director Mark Reedenauer. “We know these awards mean a lot to every employee within their respective organizations. I have seen this firsthand, as the NMEA awards are hanging on the walls when I have visited NMEA manufacturers around the globe. We want to thank all of the manufacturers who relay this message of company pride and ownership to their employees back home.”

As of July 1st, 2024 the embargo is lifted on the photos and information about Four Winns’ new H9 model and it is stunning!

About a month ago, I traveled to Charlevoix, MI for a special press event to introduce the H9 to a small group of journalists. The water and the weather were a bit cool but the sun was out and Lake Charlevoix was calm and the Four Winns H9 was very impressive. This is a 29-foot 11-inch luxury day boat with a 9- foot 2-inch beam and it features a fabulous expansive flat floor all the way from the bow rider area to the transom and the swim platform.
