That's sound advice. I assume you have your Basic Safety Training courses completed. That is mandatory. And you'll need and ENG1 medical...
I've cruised the Bahamas extensively with an 8' draft, with no issues. 9' is doable, but does come with some limitations. As far as the Westport...
I saw her in person yesterday in Virgin Gorda. She's very impressive! They were running hili-ops for someone's 24th birthday. Sorry that I didn't...
My favorite story of 2018.
Just at maneuvering speed. It was generally when we were leaving an anchorage, but sometimes in an out of port. It was all very carefully set up,...
When I was running RENA, I often dropped the tender off the hip.
It is awfully close, but I count one extra porthole on the boat in question.
It is rare, but happens. Not generally more than once though!
This is pretty accurate, although realistically I would say 10 days from Boston to Gibraltar, where one would normally stop for fuel duty-free...

Perhaps. Another likely scenario is that the boat is owned by a corporation, and they couldn't prove that the beneficial owner of the boat is also...
This is a perfectly legal, and only viable (until last week), way for a vessel of over 300T to be chartered in the US.
Truthfully, 47 people is not very many on a 147' boat. Operating a boat that size (not under charter), one could easily ask Flag State for a...
Fake news right there. She is a relative, but by no means the owner.
I know that propane can be found, although the fittings are different than the US tanks. You'll need to change the end on your BBQ.
I think you're correct Rodger. Yes it is expensive, but wholly on the Canadian side of things. The US Coast Guard does not require a STRICTLY...
Yes
