Yes, at least if you are not in the home waters of the yacht and owner. If it is company owned, the management company can issue an...
I was checking the Monaco webcam the day after the GP and the picture has become a little strange lately, brighter at daytime and darker at...
No, I don´t think so. This yacht is similar to another style from Benetti.
I have never heard of waterline length as a definition of a ships length. The normal is to measure the deck over the hull where it is a closed...
You can also have a look at the yachts papers, if it is in a ships registry, the length is usually shorter than the figure in the brochures as...
Thanks Dave and welcome to YachtForums! David Pascoe has many useful articles for boat buyers and this one is no exception. However, it is not...
Yep, we had this new boat up and adjusted the connecting rod between the drives prior to delivery. So we were checking that steering was OK at all...
You can never learn to much, but one of the typical problems with the shipyards is that few of the employees has any hands on yachting experience....
As she has been sitting there the whole day in front of thousands of cameras, her position is pretty well known. I don´t know if this is where she...

I found this 62´Spiro trawler for sale. Instead of building a shadow vessel, they have made an extension with a garage for a small car. Pretty...
I think that I would like that pocket size radar! From above the superstructure reminds of Atlantis II and I like the bow better than any axbow....
OK, so it is basically what I have seen then. They used it for long legs, not where it is narrow since you can not steer by reversing one shaft....
I think I have seen something like that on a Feadship, where a belt could be engaged to the second shaft. But I think it was just for going ahead,...
Hi Steve, I don´t follow exactly what you are thinking of, but there are systems of all kinds out there. You can run two props on one engine or...
Hi Ricardo, If you live in Funchal, you should already be the expert! ;) Tell us why you are asking, do you like to buy the smallest boat...
As mentioned in the beginning of this thread, Bystander is built to escort the sailing yacht on the picture, the famous J-class Velsheda.
Hi Thorwald and welcome to YachtForums! Not a small project you have there, but it looks like you know what you are into! I will look further...
