Sailing The Seven Seas Without The Stress Crewed motor yachts are yachts that you charter for a vacation without needing to have any sailing experience. With the crewed charters, you don't have to do any work in handling the yacht or navigating the waters of the location you choose. You can choose to have a luxury charter where you have exquisite surroundings and meals prepared by a chef. Waiters bring you drinks and the members of the crew will provide instructions for water sports if you need any. Crewed motor yachts range in size from yachts that can only take 2 passengers to ones that can take up to 12 or more. A crewed motor yacht charter is an excellent choice for a family vacation. Children are welcome on these yacht charters, but none of the crew will be assigned to looking after them, even with luxury motor yacht charter. Parents are expected to keep the children entertained and to bring whatever they need for enjoyment aboard with them. Crewed motor yachts are perfectly safe for children, but like any location, you do need to keep them within your sight at all times. When you choose a luxury motor yacht charter, you have a personal chef to prepare your...more

Launching Your Boat The Right Way Launching your boat will become a simple task with a little practice. However, if you are new to boating you might want to hitch up your boat trailer and head to an empty parking lot to gain some practice. I don't recommend arriving at the boat ramp and attempting to launch your boat before you know how to reverse a trailer.So, let's look at some of the principles of reversing a trailer ...Start with your vehicle and the trailer as straight as possible and about a trailer's length from the area into which you want to reverse. Watch the trailer out of the driver's window while reversing slowly, and start turning the steering wheel to the right. Be gentle with the steering - it is easier to add more steering than to correct it too much. Some guides to reversing suggest grasping the steering wheel at the very bottom. This should prevent you from over-turning the wheel and if your steering wheel is in a straight position to start with, you will know throughout the reversing maneuver, without having to look, that at the lowest point your steering wheel is again straight.As soon as the trailer starts to turn you can begin straightening up...more
