Are Custom Boat Covers Right For You?

By Charlie Johnson

Sure, there are plenty of generic boat covers available at there. But if you're like most boat owners, you are ten times the nut of the average car enthusiast. And that means that generic boat covers are not for your baby. You need custom boat covers that define who you are and make your boat unique. Your boat is your baby and it needs to be a beauty.

Custom boat covers take into consideration everything unique about your boat - length, width, height - so that the custom boat cover fits snugly on your boat and you don't have to worry about things like the wind blowing the cover away or dirt and dust finding any spaces between the cover and your boat.

Nobody wants to take off their boat cover to find a dirty, and possibly scratched, boat underneath. There's also no chance of the elements such as rain or snow making it's way inside the cover and onto your boat.

The cool thing about custom boat covers is that you can have them designed any way you like on the outside. This means your custom boat cover can include any custom logo or artwork that you'd like to display - something that makes a statement about you and your boat that no other boat owner has.

A custom boat cover is your chance to show off your individuality as a boat owner. Take advantage of it.

A custom boat cover allows you the best of both worlds - showing off your individuality and creativity as well as providing the security your boat needs with a properly fitted custom boat cover.

Besides the reasons mentioned above when your boat is just sitting there docked or in your yard, don't forget about all the possibly damaging debris that flies around when your boat is hitched up and are out driving on the highway. Even the tiniest little pebbles can do some serious damage when they fly out from under a truck tire and slam into your boat.

Everyone you drive by can be impressed by your custom boat cover and you can relax, knowing your boat isn't being damaged during the trip.

Tips On supra ski boat

Most large yachts, 50 feet (15 m) and up, are also cruisers, but their design varies greatly as they are often "one off" designs tailored to the specific needs of the buyer.The interior is often finished in wood panelling, with plenty of storage space. Cruisers are quite capable of taking on long-range passages of many thousands of miles. Such boats have a cruising speed upwards of 6 knots. This basic design is typical of the standard types produced by the major yacht-builders.

Racing yachts try to reduce the wetted surface area, which creates drag, by keeping the hull light whilst having a deep and heavy bulb keel, allowing them to support a tall mast with a great sail area. Modern designs tend to have a very wide beam and a flat bottom, to provide buoyancy preventing an excessive heel angle. Speeds of up to 35 knots can be attained in extreme conditions. Dedicated offshore racing yachts sacrifice crew comfort for speed, having basic accommodation to reduce weight. Depending on the type of race, such a yacht may have a crew of 15 or more. Very large inshore racing yachts may have a crew of 30.

There is no engineering limit to the size of jet boats, though the validity of their use depends a lot on the type of application. Classic prop-drives are generally more efficient and economical at low speeds (up to about 20 knots) but as boat speed increases beyond this the extra hull resistance generated by struts, rudders, shafts etc means waterjets are more efficient in the 20-50 knot range. Also, in situations where you need very large propellers turning at slow speeds (such as tug boats) the equivalent size waterjet would be simply too big to be practical. For these reasons the vast majority of waterjet units are installed in high speed vessels and in particular situations where shallow draught, manoeuvrability and load flexibility are main concerns.

Questions regarding communications while sailing and food preparation.

Link] What did you use for communications while sailing? Did you have a satellite phone? We have a laptop, while we are at sea, do you have any suggestions for internet access ( I know this can get vastly expensive, where do you draw the line at spending?). A further simple question. In the the Caribbean, what is the best way to clean fruit & vegetables? I am really looking forward to the markets, but am skeptical about the flies that may (or may not) be crawling over them....
