Furnishings and Interior Parts Category Winner: Kenyon International Inc., VDC Grill: Judge Ed Sherman, said, “As an advocate for higher voltage DC systems on boats due to the enhanced efficiency these systems provide, I applaud Kenyon for introducing their 48-volt grill to the industry. Get the LP gas off the boat!

The VDC grill combines our patented IntelliKEN Touch™ control technology with the efficiency of 48V DC power so you can experience flameless, family-sized grill while minimizing power consumption on-board.
