Bluewaters are in fact houseyachts (houseboats with a bow; a step up in sea handling). Very nice for the style. Others in it's class would be...
Maxum was the upscale brand for Bayliner. I understood that they were to be closed down by Brunswick as it directly competed with their other...
You're welcome, and right. But the cunfusion was a bit amusing for those who can twiddle their thumbs in opposite directions at the same time.:D
In NY we talk a little funny. We call them roundabouts.:D (Sometimes we do call them traffic circles also).
Would a lift chair be feasable for your situation or possibly elevator to one level and lift chair to the other? It might solve some design problems.
That mostly depends on the size of the yacht. It's best for the boat to have one person who knows her, but F/T Captains or engineers are usually...
Simply put you can cruise most anywhere (no prohibition on leaving the U.S.), but you need permission to enter another country just like when you...
As flip as that sounds he's right. The VHF is no big deal (just be careful with the antenae) so go for it, but "other" electronics can get a bit...
Did everyone note in The Perfect Storm the point where the author could no longer have testimony to go by (VHF dead) and had to use his...

First you have to get a better reason for your wife since getting from city to city will take days instead of hours, you won't dock near most...
How many of today's captains have even held a sextant much less actually know how to use it?:D As for the average boater; lost and found for...
Sounds a bit like Y2K. However, if it comes to pass, us old timers can double our rate since the kids will be babbling incoherantly (Hey, why...
Hey, it's time to take down the dog's x-mas wreath.:D
Post has a good reputation. That post you read is probably just the kick in the pants they'll need to not make that mistake again. Anybody can...
Actually it could happen to anyone buying any boat. It's why reputations are so important.
The 'problem' doesn't 'come in this kind of economy'. The proof of one's ethics (or lack there of) does. It's easy to do the right thing if it...
If he stole a jet you could add a whole different dimention to the story and have it almost believable in a James Bond sort of way. One guy alone...
When the price of truth may be your life, your family or your fortune it has to be, but (as shown in China, No. Korea & Iran) even the web has...
