When seen bow-on, the reflection from the anchor almost looks like a colorful decal on this big Yellowfin center console. This photo — like many in this gallery — offers an interesting perspective courtesy of the wide-angle lens of a GoPro Hero3.

If you’re one of those guys who just has to see what’s under the hood, you’ll appreciate this monster — a 20V 4000 m93L from MTU. Probably not a good bet for your kayak!

Hydra-Sports also makes a pretty bad-ass bay boat, its 23 Bay Bolt. Slap on a 300-hp outboard and she’ll do 60, says the manufacturer.
