TACO Marine® Booth MB4111 @ Miami 2022
To Feature A Wide Range of Products
Miami Beach Convention Center, February 16-20

ShadeFin

The TACO Marine® team will be on deck in booth MB4111 at next week’s Discover Boating Miami International Boat Show with a wide range of popular products.

Here’s a few to see.

Award-Winning ShadeFin™ (shown here)
Winner of a Boating Industry magazine Top Product Award, ShadeFin™ easily attaches into rod holders, tops and gunnels to conveniently add an extra layer of sun protection for almost any boat. Click here or on the image above to watch a demonstration and installation video featuring Captain Mark Henderson.

Offered in black or white, ShadeFin’s fabric provides a UPF 50+ rating of sun protection for multiple areas of the boat, including fore, aft and sides of tops and anywhere there is a rod holder. It pairs with either a fixed or adjustable rod holder mount, which insert into any standard rod holder, a hardtop bracket mount, the TACO Marine Grand Slam 170 Outrigger or 170-2 Center Rigger Mounts, or with a fixed or adjustable clamp-on mount for pipe or tube.

A number of leading boat brands with displays at various Miami show locations will have a ShadeFin on board.

Troll The Edge With TACO Sport Fishing Products
TACO sport fishing products are recognized worldwide for durability and quality, and endorsed by professional anglers who've used their Grand Slams in some of the toughest conditions at sea. Visit the Miami show booth to see our patented and popular line of Outrigger and Center Rigger Mounts, as well as a variety of sport fishing equipment tested and trusted by the pros.

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. It has smooth operation, an 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 Masthead Light
The new Grand Slam 900 Masthead 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.

SuproFlex Rub Rail
High impact SuproFlex Flexible Rub Rail comes in a variety of sizes & colors and pairs with TACO’s patented Flex Chrome Insert, which can also be customized to any color preference.

New Corporate Headquarters For
TACO Metals® and TACO Marine®

MIRAMAR, FLORIDA (USA) – After more than 34 years in Miami, the corporate headquarters of TACO Metals® and TACO Marine® has moved to 3020 North Commerce Parkway in Miramar, Florida.

The move for the leading manufacturer of rub rail, sport fishing and outrigger systems, boat shade, canvas and tower components, helm chairs and pedestals, and specialty hardware comes a little more than a year after TACO was acquired by Patrick Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: PATK).

“Since the pandemic, our administrative workforce has been working and will continue to work remotely. This gave us the opportunity to scale back our office space and relocate to a more strategic location from which to serve our customers,” said TACO Vice President of Sales & Marketing Mike Kushner.

TACO also has manufacturing facilities in Tennessee and Florida, and distribution centers in Tennessee, Florida, South Carolina and Massachusetts.
