A Secret Weapon On Board

Playing a new course during a yacht holiday is always a special pleasure. For golfers afloat, keeping a spare set of clubs on board is a given. But what if you had a private coach on board, who brought along a swing machine and worked with you on your short game on the aft deck and performed video analysis in the screening room at the end of the day?

New Tech and Gear

If you’re looking for the next advancement, from Raymarine, wait no longer. Also, in this issue see FLIR’s new high-res thermal night vision unit with color camera, an affordable weather monitoring system, and how Perini Navi is reaching out to captains and crew.

Stowable Carbon Fiber Boarding Stairs

A new company in the yachting equipment marketplace, Bristol Yacht Components, has introduced its premier product line: Bristol Boarding Stairs. Bristol Boarding Stairs are made of carbon fiber to provide a durable, lightweight, easy-to-deploy access system with an aesthetic design to enhance the look of any motoryacht or sailing vessel.

Destination Chile: A Taste of Wilderness

Tom and his wife Nancy spent four years onboard the 94′ Trinity Halter Whale Song, a 2001 explorer yacht with a range of 3,000 miles. They took this 1,000+-mile trip between Ushuaia, Argentina and Puerto Montt, Chile in 2007.

A Take-Along Island

BMT Nigel in collaboration with Henry Ward (a recent design graduate who came up with the concept) has designed a 33-by-26-foot (10-by-8-meter) supplemental beach you can take anywhere. Not only does it float wherever you want it to (you can tow it with a tender), it folds into its own purpose-made crate, which fits in the garage.

Newcastle Harbour Island: Big Time Fun

Harbour Island is the largest yacht built in Florida. Not only that, the 180-foot Newcastle is every bit the southern belle and island of fun her owner was hoping for: an expedition-minded yacht with all the amenities of a superyacht.
