Room service and a pool?
Hehe. I dunno, at least buoys don't have crew to witness and testify to your seamanship.
That one ought to be cut and dried. I'm betting the barge had the right of way no matter what the headings were either constrained by draft,...
I can see that and he obviously knows his boat far better than I do. He also had the rest of his crew on the bow to think about if he turned. In...
I spent two weeks anchored in English Harbor waiting on parts in 1988. Not having much to do we poked around the island in a rental car and...
I'm thinking Falmouth Harbor, Antigua but it's been a long time since I was there. Edit: Wherever it is she appears to be anchored now.
I'd be curious too. Intially I thought they couldn't turn because of the shallow water and the surf beating them ashore but it seemed like he was...

Bottom job usually means cleaning and painting the bottom. If it's been done regularly the cleaning part shouldn't be too bad. The boats that are...
Pretty cool but a long way from any practical application.
I could have been but elected not to. My brother and I were bringing our family 48' DeFever back from the Bahamas after spending a couple of weeks...
Umm, sorry, the Bloom fuel cell is nothing like cold fusion. For one thing it works. Sure they over-hyped it but the technology is real. Whether...
I've only played with relatively little family owned boats but aren't you kinda supposed to know all that before someone gives you the wheel of a...
I actually think the two window version looks more appropriate with the rest of the boat. Either way she's a beautiful yacht and I hope you show...
Thanks. That's where I thought it was but I wasn't sure with the little bit visible past the stern. Well, that and it's been over 30 years since...
Bummer. I grew up around there and can confirm it's not that hard to do. Of course when I grew up a chart was a little plastic thing you used on a...
Interesting, I'd never seen it. Thanks.
Is that axe shaped bow for real? If so, what is the rationale?
