The Adriatic Sea is one of the most beautiful waterbodies in Europe, especially in summer when it is calmed down to unbelievable gentleness by the "maestral", the summer wind. This beautiful, scenic sea is bounded on the west by Italy, and on the East by Croatia, Montenegro, Albania, Slovenia and Bosnia and Herzegovina among other East European countries. There are over twenty major cities along its coast, making a yachting vacation a beautiful and novel way to visit this little-explored part of Europe. The serenity of the Adriatic Sea makes it a favored place for regattas, or yacht races. Smaller regattas are among 10 vessels, while larger ones can involve as many as 50 vessels, all trying to...

ng a yacht is different than other types of watercrafts, they are a floating home and that means they need to be advertised that way or a more simple way is to use a yacht broker. These are boats that have bedrooms, main living quarters and all the amenities that can be afforded. This means advertising yacht sales should be done in a way that allows potential buyers to see the luxury this boat has to offer. There are many ways this can be done; in boat advertising magazines, on the Internet and even the local marina. One of the ways to get the largest response is to use a yacht broker and their website, this means having the experience of someone that works with boat sales daily. It also means...

Celebrity Yacht Owners

Holidays are all about rest, relaxation, and luxury. And when it comes to celebrities, you can count on them to go overboard by spending time - and money, in exotic locations, onboard some of the world's most luxurious yachts. Privacy from the paps While stars continue to shell out on traditional holidays in exotic resorts and luxury villas, the allure of a holiday onboard a luxury yacht is more appealing than ever. Villas are great, but the moment a star tries to leave the property, their privacy is compromised. On board a yacht, the celebrity is normally out of the public eye. The yacht crews are very discreet, and usually no one even knows the star was on board until the charter has ended. This...

The candidates are kissing all the babies they can get their palms on and smiling until their cheek muscles ache; but will they be able to produce any of the changes they talk about? Do we really want them to? 90% of all Americans are investors and, as such, there are issues that we need to hear about from the man who would be king. None of our could-be leaders are addressing the issues that would allow us to achieve our financial goals. What we all want is to keep more of what we make, and then to spend it as we see fit.

Why own a small trimaran instead of another kind of small sailboat out there? This is an easy question to answer. Small trimarans are simply more fun to sail than other kinds of sailboats. Yes, I know this is a pretty bold statement. But let's look at the main reason why most trimaran sailors would probably agree with me and say this is true. Virtually all trimarans, including small ones, are faster than most monohull sailboats. This is undisputed fact. With the exception of boats such as small dinghies, monohull sailboats carry heavy ballast. The ballast is an essential ingredient for added weight so the boat doesn't tip over, and is a natural part of a monohull's design configuration. So by...

The need for speed on four wheels was born but it took Henry Ford to bring the automobile to the masses with the Model T, launched in 1913, and using what was then state of the art mass production techniques. While the Model T hardly fits anyone’s description of a “sports car”, it was the fastest mode of personal transport then available. The trend towards faster cars emerged from the development of the motor car, but it also spurred on further advances and technology. As soon as the car was invented, people began to race them and...

buying a car, you should consider four main factors - quality, price, value and reliability. A car may have one or two factors but be missing the other two. You need to find a car that has all four factors. Foreign cars tend to be more likely to possess the four factors. Quality is the workmanship and durability of a car over time. Many foreign cars, especially mid-size cars, can have a very long, useful life. There are many of these cars still on the road well after 100,000 miles of use. Domestic cars, on the other hand, tend not to last much past 100,000 miles even if cared for well. A foreign car will tend to be more durable and will have fewer problems than a domestic car with the same mileage...

Once you know exactly how, where and when you will use your dream boat, the next question to answer is "what are the characteristics of a boat best suited for how I will sail the boat?" I believe this question is best answered across five dimensions: Rig type, sail plan, keel type, interior accommodations and overall hull design. Many great books are available to discuss these considerations in any level of detail you would like. Here is a quick overview. Rig type and sail plan go hand-in-hand. Typically, there is a trade off between ease of sail handling and safety/flexibility. For example, a cat rigged boat with one large mainsail and no headsail (think Laser) is very easy to handle by one person...
