If she weren't on seatrials, would she be under her own power? Or, is this just standard navigation for the waterway?
Do you know what the max air draft for the Erie is, roughly?
Only the very early production units of the Oyster 825 (I believe just the first three or four boats), employed this very suspect hull design and...
Great video. I wish the videographer would have mentioned the windspeed (obviously it's light). Hopefully, her sailing characteristics will...
I was really curious about that as well. When they pulled her off (the original) Ulysses, my assuption was the owner was going to put the cat on...

Accidents happen, but to engage a bow thruster with a diver in the water who's servicing your hull crosses the 'accident' line and comes...
Terrific Virtual Tour of the new Amels 272, M/Y Here Comes the Sun. While I've seen this offered for some high-end production boats, I've never...
