Over at Three Sheets Northwest, Marty McOmber has this story about a recent boating get-together. The “gear and gadgets” angle is a natural fit for Navagear, however:
It is quite possibly the world’s most powerful portable blender.
And when Scott Anderson fired up the five-horsepower bow thruster turned margarita maker on Saturday, the party officially got underway at Signature Yachts’ first annual all-fleet rendezvous.
More than 100 people aboard 40 boats spent the weekend at Port Ludlow checking out other vessels, swapping stories and generally having a great time at one of the most picturesque harbors on Puget Sound.
But it was Anderson’s Frankensteinesque blending machine that stole the show. The owner of CSR Marine looked at the clear tube and blades of a bow thruster and saw not just a device to help maneuver boats, but something that could crush bags and bags of ice and blend gallons of lime juice, sugar and lots of tequila into a very tasty drink.
It didn’t take long for a crowd of rendezvous participants to gather around the giant blender, sample its wares and generally kick off a great event.

And the margarita maker is probably cheaper that what Sur La Table sells! I’ll drink to that….
