Is it me, or does the water in those French waterways look a little unclean?
Okay, here's another dumb question from a guy like me who knows next to nothing about cabin cruisers. Why is it I see a lot of those big boys...
Oopsy, the guy on the James Bond thread answered this question. My bad. :)
Yacht from "Thunderball" Does anyone remember the yacht from "Thunderball"? What kind of yacht was that? Does anyone know?
That's a hot script. Cross market appeal, pre-teen date to 20-something dem, have your people call mine... we'll do lunch! ;)
Heh, back in the 90s I switched careers and studied aerospace engineering. One of the emphasis I mused with was with lighter than air designs...

That is ingenious.
Yeah, I've capsized numerous times in a variety of craft, but never experienced the pitch pole thing. Your ballast explanation clears things up...
Interesting. I've seen it happen in San Francisco Bay, and I always wondered if it was because the winds tend to be a little stronger here, or...
I've always wondered how a multihull pitches over. I understand capsizing, but I'm really in the dark as to how a cat topples forward head first....
A sleeping bag'll do me, thanks :)
Shoot, too late to edit my previous post. Anyway, years back I worked the tail end of a Spielberg production as a PA. It was "Inner Space", and...
It sounds like the ocean makes a pretty good insulator when you're below decks. Interesting.
