The only way to stop "Monday morning quarterbacking" is for the yard management to tell the world what happened and why. Since that is no more...
I wonder if the launch cradle failed before the afterbody was afloat? Did the stern flood through that open door and cause premature tipping and...
No, it's not all that complicated, however it is a complex task that when not performed correctly can result in threads like this one.
No problem. The Harrier I mentioned is a non-flyer. I just figured it would make a nice centerpiece for that deck area forward of the island. Not...
No, I wouldn't. I would be very surprised to see any "official" report such as one produced by the insurance underwriters' surveyors or other...

If brokers would just stick to selling boats and keep out of it beyond the closing, owners would be a lot better off.

The article in December's Yacht Report (Issue 119 pp 101-103) is interesting. I wonder how the next issue will spin this out. It is really...
That seems odd, Google Ruea yachts and follow one of those links then.
Haven't found any information yet. Here is a link to the company website: http://www.rueayachts.com/
I see the latest issue of TYR has an article about the two guys who plan(ned) to put Thailand on the yacht building map with that project ... oops.
It's not really "trashed," a bunch of unsecured fooferall went adrift as the ship took a (reported) whopping 15 degree roll. The rolling lasted 5...
I guess this wouldn't fit so they left it in the water.
What was the problem with the sailboat?
As far as maneuvering characteristics go ... yes, it doesn't count as a jet drive boat. Having a helicopter onboard doesn't make a yacht an LPH.
Must be someone else then.
Geez, that is certainly a gay binnacle! What would Lord Kelvin think of his balls being displayed in such a gaudy fashion?
