Montara wins
Boating Magazine’s Boat of the Year Award is the Most Prestigious Award in Recreational boating. Boating’s Tech Team tests more that 100 boats each year, more than anyone on the planet. The Boat of the Year must Excel in its category more than any other boat excels in any other category. The Montara 2.0 was the FIRST candidate in many years that won unanimous approval from each member of Boating’s Tech Team. Kevin Falvey, Editor in Chief of Boating states “Montara’s 2.0 delivers a whole new category to the Recreational boating market. It delivers all the amenities, comfort and luxury of a pontoon boat, yet delivers the performance of a wakeboard boat that will appease high-end enthusiasts. In doing those two things, it becomes a third thing, it becomes more than just the sum of the two, it becomes a whole new category of boat.”
