TACO Marine® will feature five new products available now to boat owners and the industry in Marine Equipment booth 403 at next week's Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show.

GS 850 & 950

The Grand Slam 850 Electric VHF Antenna Mount easily installs to the surface of a hardtop and will fit all top thicknesses. No under-mount clearance is required. A standard 1-1/4" thread (male) shaft will accept all standard VHF antennas.

The new GS-950 Electric Anchor & Stern Light is ideal for powered vessels 39' (12 meters) and under and is certified for the USCG-required 2 nautical miles. This mount also easily installs to the surface of a hardtop and fits all top thicknesses. The light runs on 12 volts and consists of four 3-watt LED Cree chips driven by two Mean Well drivers.

SuproFlex Rub Rail

New SuproFlex Rub Rail has higher impact resistance, requires minimal heating, is super flexible, easier to install, requires less manpower and reduces materials cost. Designed for boats up to 65', SuproFlex is co-extruded vinyl that provides two levels of hardness to ensure enhanced protection from impact. It requires no pre-forming and easily molds to most hull shapes. This new rub rail is available in a variety of sizes and colors, and pairs with TACO's patented Flex Chrome Insert, which can also be customized to any color preference.

GS-800 VHF Antenna Mount

The new GS-800 VHF Antenna Mount was created specifically to prevent climbing on the boat gunnel to raise and lower a VHF antenna. Lift and descend the antenna from the safety of the deck from under the top. Its smooth operation, attractive machined aluminum frame and cast stainless-steel rotator. A standard 1-1/4" thread (male) shaft will accept standard VHF antennas. A folding crank handle locks flush into the base.

GS-900 Anchor & Stern Light

The new Grand Slam 900 Anchor & Stern Light allows boat operators to lift and descend this navigational requirement from the safety of the deck, right under the top and without ever having to climb on the gunnel again. Simply extend the crank handle and rotate the light to the upright position or back to its stowed, towing location. The light runs on 12 volts and consists of four 3-watt LED Cree chips driven by two Mean Well drivers.

Pro Series GS-500 Kit

The new Grand Slam 500 Outrigger Kit, designed for boats from 32 to 50+ feet, features everything needed for hardcore offshore fishing.

The kit includes a pair of Pro Series GS-500 Outrigger Mounts and a pair of UV-resistant, clear coated 20' Carbon Fiber Twist & Lock Tele-Outriggers, which include Outrigger Line Caddies. Safely adjust lift and rotation from the deck. A patent-pending Twist & Lock mechanism allows one-handed, easy, fast and secure outrigger pole installation. The poles telescope to less than 8 feet for bridge clearance, trailering and storage. Rigging Kit sold separately.
