Government regulation is an inescapable reality of the boating industry, for manufacturers, buyers, enthusiasts and maritime professionals. The...
That Youtuber eSysman reported over the weekend (based on sources who were on the vessels at the time of the collision) that it wasn't the lack of...
Even if the tanker's AIS transponder was malfunctioning or simply not on, there's no way that thing doesn't have a robust radar signature. Do...
I like it. It's elegant, inside and out. I usually don't care for Cassetta's designs, particularly that 35M that Benetti has built so many of....
I was curious about that myself. They look like LEO satellite dishes similar to what Starlink produces. The owner of Wayfinder is himself the...
She has to be the largest private yacht flying the American flag, right? Congress amended the regulations a few years ago to (I believe) allow...
Unbelievable. Breathtaking stupidity. I'm sure they looked into the insurance fraud angle (right?). But, the sequence of events are so...
Yes, that might help. You can see so much of the main deck because of those large scallop cut-aways, the color is even more pronounced than...
Ill-proportioned even mini-van like; maybe the design gives it great utilitarian value. It certainly gives it enormous interior volume, like a...
Now we're getting up there. That's longer than an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer. I wonder what her displacement is.
Is this the first yacht to be built to PYC standards that employs a door/screen over the lifeboats? That's a feature I cannot remember seeing on...
She has a reasonably pronounced list in that video. I went back and looked at some other vids of her underway and didn't see anything like that....
Maybe that will reliably fix their novel catapult system. Nothing else seems to have worked. As troubled as the Ford's development has been,...
In addition to Madsummer, Harrison Eidsgaard has designed some great looking yachts over the years including Halo, Vanish and one of my all-time...
There have been rumors for years that he was building something bigger. I wonder if he finally pulled the trigger or if he's exiting yachting.
Another few years a decade at most, only professional photographers/editors will be able to distinguish a render from the real thing. It's really...
She just hit the brokerage market for $69.5M with Burgess.
That looks like an AW 139. That's a big helo for a private yacht . To put it in some perspective, that's 5K lbs heavier (or more) and almost 10'...
It's interesting that he only kept the 'old' Vanish a few years before upgrading to this design which is extremely similar to the old design but...
FWIW, there have been PLENTY of NTSB reports on fatal accidents that assigned zero blame to the flight crew. Sometimes there are simply...
