The Baltimore team may soon revisit the chaotic negotiations that surrounded former MVP Lamar Jackson last year.

Imams, rabbis, and pastors sat together—not to debate their beliefs, but to talk about how they could work together. The event wasn’t about converting anyone or changing minds.

They didn’t carry people, but they still did useful work. The boats mix commercial boat parts with military brainpower. Mercury Marine engines and Navico e
