Is that purchase price (used) or original retail price? A 6 year old million dollar yacht is about $500K. Welcome to YF.:)
Good thinking Bill. Hadn't even thought of floating out on the toy and then going into the water. I was concerned with the idea of going...
Absolutely. Regarding the RIB, I meant to launch a RIB to transfer from that to the 22. I agree they tow badly. Unfortunately that is often the...
The 62 is a much more stable (predictable) platform than the toy. Assuming the crew has been taught to never put a body part between boats it's...
RU kidding. You need only get the bow close enough that he can grab the bow and push off as he leaps aboard or have someone else hold it off....
No need. " Mount Gay and good Red Wine" :D Cheers.
Ah, but you were the house guest. Let's hear from the host. Usually after 3 days I stop serving my guests dinner and instead serve them FOR...
First: Remember that fish and houseguests begin to stink after 3 days. More to the point of your question, an older Hatteras or Chris gives...
That boat looks like it's running very heavy.
I too was thinking it came up a little short.:D That would make a 21' center console (with no head, galley or sleeping area) a yacht.:confused: :)...
Given that I'm surprised you chose to anchor behind the Thimbles a couple of years back in that wind and rock bottom or are we talking about your...
Always amusing and entertaining. Too bad you can't buy brains:D
I often anchor on the north side of Shelter Is. here where we get a good 4 kt. current on the outgoing tide. Not a Saturday or Sunday goes by in...
Like most of us. The best protection (besides Racors) is to use only the fuel docks that do a lot of pumping. An added bonus is that they...
You'll find some good info here: http://www.tpub.com/content/construction/14264/css/14264_159.htm and a google search will pull up more.
50+ years as a boater; 23 as a very busy Master; 27 runs up and down the coast. Never done it. However, I do make a point of using only the well...
Well, I think that part of the question (that wasn't asked) has been beaten to death. However, there seems to be a part of the OP's inquiry that...
When you're pumping 15K gals. rarely will that be done at a marina fuel dock and that need won't pop up. It's planned days if not weeks in...
I always impress on my students the need to practice, practice, practice. I tell them, if nothing else, when you pull out of a slip do a 360 then...
Sorry, but I can not see a yacht as anything less than the worst possible place for a paranoid to go. It reminds me of the bomb shelter and 'duck...
