The spec build 'Allogante" by Alloy Yachts (designed by Ed Dubois with a Redman Whitely interior) has been sold and shipped to Florida. Presumably...
You may want to look at the Salthouse Marine website and check out their 65Q variant that has quad IPS's. In their case it appears that with...
Agreed. Even the very wealthy, and highly experienced yacht owners to boot, are price sensitive - as I am sure the point has been made that many...
Yep - I am sure you're right. It was a technological miracle vessel at the time. Was capable, in theory, of remote operation of its sailing...
Was during the first local America's Cup defence a number of years ago so I am fairly sure it was his previous sailing yacht - name escapes me.
I see in Auckland at the Viaduct Basin the marina owners provide their RIBs to assist med mooring vessels and it seems to work OK. Problem of high...
Thanks guys - not immediately concerned with the issue of 'swinging' the compass to correct for variation due to extraneous metal-related forces...
I am showing my ignorance and would appreciate some wisdom from the old hands. I use a smallish fizz boat for fishing fun - not too many miles...
Highlander mentions about reliability of joy sticks for jets in particular - Hamilton has the Mouse Boat version for their units and one would...

One would suspect that as they have engaged High Modulus to design their lay up of the new 68 they have sat up and taken notice of the need to...
Can't be too far away from production if not already available now. Gibbs were setting up a new manufacturing plant in the US for the amphibious...
Common problem and a number of local inflatable manufacturers here offer even small (around 2m) tenders with aluminium hull sections that survive...
Yes, I've notice that sprint boats mount their twin turbos and dry exhausts very high indeed - with no engine covers of course! I guess that...
Perhaps the suggestion can be made that although the new systems are designed to shear off when hitting a solid object (a unidirectional force...
Strange way of scritping this advert blurb perhaps - bit stale perhaps to talk about car manufacturers only now focussing on turbocharging. Surely...
I must say that I found this a de ja vu situation. We set nets for flat fish in estuaries at night and if you use a spot light to help navigate...
Many thanks - yes that's the 'other' Snow Goose at her launch on the Tamaki River immediately adjacent to McMullen and Wing's yard. Cooncidentally...
RobVer has given me huge enjoyment whatever people have thought of his allegations - substantiated or not. No doubt he would be a top bloke to...
