MTI Unveils 390X Outboard Catamaran at Private Miami Event
Marine Technology Inc. (MTI), builder of luxury high-performance catamarans and deep-vee center consoles, has unveiled a brand-new model: the 390X, an outboard-powered cat capable of reaching speeds over 120 mph.
The new release was part of a special gathering at Haulover Marine, the 180-acre marina located in North Miami Beach that serves as a satellite sales office for MTI that includes a 500-boat drystack facility. MTI invited dealers and journalists from across the country to witness the unveiling of the 390X, a super-sized version of MTI’s 340X outboard cat. Debuting at the 2017 Miami International Boat Show, the 340X has become a popular model at poker runs from coast to coast; company owner Randy Scism and his daughter Taylor Scism have been driving the boat at the Lake of the Ozarks Shootout since its release.
“We did all new tooling and molds on this new boat, and it worked out great, Randy Scism told Powerboat Nation at the event. “It’s not a cut and stretch. Everything we did was to improve what we thought was the best deal there.”
The event, which featured the first 390X out of the mold being unveiled, culminated in an impromptu bidding war. “One of my customers conned me into putting it up for auction so we could have some fun, and somebody bought it for $700K,” he said. “So I’ve gotta start over. But I’ve got more to come!”
Scism said he has taken about 10 orders for the 390X to date. “It’s basically a 340X on steroids,” he said. “It’s bigger, it’s deeper, it’s fast as hell. It’s going to be great in rough water.”
MTI sales manager Tom Stuart said the builder’s original plans were to create a 38-footer to bridge the gap between MTI’s 34 and 43 catamarans. These plans didn’t change until the 11th hour, when the team decided to create a 39-footer.
Measuring 39’4”, the 390X sports a 10’6” beam and weighs in at around 6,000 lbs. It was crafted using all-new CNC molds with integrated steps up the back; it features a fuel capacity of 150 gallons, seating for six and is powered by twin Mercury Racing 450R outboards. The boat was in-water tested at Lake X, Mercury Racing’s testing facility.

Strange Glow Over Moscow Skies Triggers Panic as Explosions Reported
B right flashes lit up the night sky in southern Moscow in the early hours of Thursday morning, new footage appears to show, following reports of an explosion at an electrical substation on the outskirts of the city.
Video snippets circulating on Russian-language Telegram channels show a series of flashes on the horizon of a cloudy night sky, momentarily turning the sky a number of different colors. In a clip shared by Russian outlet MSK1.ru, smoke can be seen rising from a building during the flashes lighting up the scene.
Newsweek was unable to independently verify the details of the video clips, including when and where it was filmed. The Russian Ministry of Emergency situations has been contacted via email.
Several Russian Telegram accounts said early on Thursday that residents of southern Moscow reported an explosion and a fire breaking out at an electrical substation in the Leninsky district, southeast of central Moscow.
Local authorities in the Leninsky district told Russian outlet RBC that the explosion had happened in the village of Molokovo. "All vital facilities are operating as normal," Leninsky district officials told the outlet.
The incident at the substation in Molokovo took place just before 2 a.m. local time, MSK1.ru reported.
Messages published by the ASTRA Telegram account, run by independent Russian journalists, appear to show residents close to the substation panicking as they question the bright flashes in the sky. One local resident describes seeing the bright light before losing access to electricity, with another calling the incident a "nightmare."
More than 10 villages and towns in the southeast of Moscow lost access to electricity, the ASTRA Telegram account also reported. The town of Lytkarino to the southeast of Moscow, lost electricity, wrote the eastern European-based independent outlet, Meduza.
Outages were reported in the southern Domodedovo area of the city, according to another Russian outlet, as well as power failures in western Moscow. Electricity was then restored to the areas, the Strana.ua outlet reported.
The cause of the reported explosion is not known. A Telegram account aggregating news for the Lytkarino area described the incident as "an ordinary accident at a substation."
The MSK1.ru outlet quoted a local resident who speculated that a drone may have been responsible for the explosion, but no other Russian source reported this as a possible cause.
Ukraine has repeatedly targeted Moscow with long-range aerial drones in recent months, including a dramatic wave of strikes in late May.
On Sunday, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said the region's air defense systems had intercepted an aerial drone over the city of Elektrostal, to the east of Moscow. No damage or casualties were reported, he said.
The previous day, Russian air defenses detected and shot down another drone flying over the Bogorodsky district, northeast of central Moscow, Sobyanin said.
There is currently no evidence that an aerial drone was responsible for the reported overnight explosion at the electrical substation in southern Moscow.

Second Generation MTI 48—And More—On Display In Miami
For MTI company principals Randy and Cherell Scism, and their daughter, Taylor, the 2024 Miami International Boat Show isn’t just annual business as usual in South Florida. Late last month, Taylor was promoted to her position as client relations manager to vice president of the Wentzville, Mo., high-performance catamaran and center console company, so this week’s Miami happening is her first in that role.
Any way you look at it, the MTI 482 is one big beautiful catamaran. Photos copyright speedonthewater.com.
Not only did the Scisms unveil a new MTI-V 50 for their friends—and first-time clients—Tyler and Lindsey Miller of M CON offshore racing team fame yesterday when the show opened, they released a second-generation version of the 48-foot catamaran that to some extent put MTI on the go-fast boating map.
Powered by twin Mercury Racing 1100 engines with three-year warranties standard, the eight-seat model is dubbed the MTI 482.
The interior of the MTI 482 catamaran boasts suspension seating.
“The 482 is very exciting for MTI as it’s the first new inboard cat we’ve done in a few years,” Taylor Scism said. “Inboard cats are where MTI came from.
“So far it’s gotten great response,” she continued. “We had it on the water last week and it performed phenomenally. It met all of our expectations.”
Scism said the cockpit of the 482 is the feature that, at least for her, stands out the most in the reimagined, all-carbon-fiber 48-footer.
A couple details.
“The cockpit was deeper in the original 48,” she explained. “In this one, you’re a little more raised up so the visibility is great, but you still have great wind protection. And we were able to install adjustable suspension seats, which are really cool.
“After a racing a few years in the 450R Factory Stock class, I have become a big fan of those,” she added, then laughed.
For Taylor Scism, the Miami show is her first major event as the vice president of MTI.

The catamaran was every bit as exhilarating offshore, where it made short, soft work of 2- to 4-footers from all directions. MTI used advanced techniques and materials, including vacuum-bagging and epoxy resin, to build the 39' Race/Pleasure, and the result—finished with sanitary paint-applied graphics—was sweet eye-candy.
