Midnight Express + Arid Bilge Systems

When performance boats are built to run hard, every detail below deck matters.

At the 2024 Miami Boat Show, we caught up with Eric Glaser of Midnight Express Powerboats to talk about why the Arid Bilge System is offered across their lineup and how it helps deliver a cleaner, drier, more reliable boating experience.

From the rear bilge to mid-bilge and bow thruster areas, Arid quietly removes the water pumps can’t remove - protecting Seakeepers, generators, wiring, and critical components from corrosion, mold, and long-term damage.

As Eric puts it:

“Water messes everything up and we’re in a wet environment on a boat.”

That’s why Midnight Express chooses a system that works automatically in the background - keeping bilges dry without adding complexity.

When Captain Dave Marciano Says It Works - It Works

If you’ve watched Wicked Tuna, you already know Captain Dave Marciano doesn’t trust gear that can’t perform under pressure.

In this exclusive interview, Captain Dave walks us through his engine room and explains why the Arid Bilge System has become one of the most impressive upgrades on the F/V Tuna.com - keeping every bilge zone completely dry, from the engine room to the lazarette, automatically, upgrading to a new level with:
✔️ No switches.
✔️ No guessing.
✔️ No standing water.

Just a bone-dry bilge in one of the harshest working environments on the water.

When a captain who makes his living offshore, day in and day out, takes the time to say “I could not be happier,” that endorsement speaks volumes.

Protecting Wooden Boats Starts Below Deck

Wooden boats are timeless and moisture is their greatest enemy.
In this article, legendary wooden boat restorer, Jim Moores of Moores Marine, shares firsthand experience restoring some of America’s most iconic yachts, including Trumpy classics and the presidential yacht Honey Fitz.

His message is clear: standing bilge water accelerates rot, mildew, odor, and structural decay - especially in warm coastal environments.

Jim explains how installing an Arid Bilge System transformed his own 1947 Trumpy, eliminating persistent moisture, stopping mildew growth, and preserving the integrity of the wood.

In this piece, we cover:
✔️ Why moisture is so destructive to wooden hulls and interiors
✔️ How dry bilges prevent rot, mildew, and long-term decay
✔️ A real-world restoration story from a master craftsman
✔️ Why continuous moisture removal matters more than pumping alone

For wooden boat owners, this isn’t a convenience - it’s preservation.
