Boat Loans
By Lorna Mclaren
A life on the ocean waves! If that is your dream then you could make it a reality with a specialized Boat Loan.
If you want to have your own small pleasure boat or even a larger commercial one there are many loan companies that provide specialist boat loans to help make your dream a reality.
You can find boat loans for used or new vessels and the terms and interest rates will vary depending on your circumstances and the value of the boat.
It is important to shop around and make sure that you get the best boat loan for you.
There are a number of types of boat loans but the majority will use the boat as collateral, similar to a home loan or mortgage.
Of course, the predicted resale value of your chosen boat is also taken into consideration by the boat loan provider.
Various types of boat insurance are also available and many boat loan companies will insist that you take out their own boat insurance as part of the boat loan requirements.
Don't forget that your boat will require considerable amounts of finance for its upkeep and it is important to take this into consideration when looking for a boat loan.
Whatever size or style of boat you decide to get dont forget your life preserver and have fun!

How do I find a repair facility for my inflatable boat? Go to a Supplier's Index and search for the listing of the manufacturer of your boat. Click there to go to their website and locate the "dealer list" to search for a dealer/repair facility in your area. If brand loyalty is not an issue, or your brand has no dealer in your area, some of the bigger manufacturers have many dealers to choose from as most dealers will repair any brand of inflatable.
RIB or sometimes known as RHIB (Rigid Hull Inflatable Boat) is a craft with a rigid hull and inflatable tube around the top.

Boom Brakes & Preventers, Preventing Injuries.
Thu, 20 Dec 2007 16:32:21 +0200
Not wishing to pre-empt the findings of the investigation into the latest tragedy in the ARC rally. But taking a good hard look at preventing injuries from being hit specifically by booms:-
During racing, the controlled gybe manoeuver may be performed many times without the use of a boom preventer - this is understandable. However, when in a cruising mode and when setting a course for a distant destination, is there a good reason for not using a boom preventer, so that if an unplanned gybe occurs - possible injury is averted ????

What if you come upon a boatload of refugees while cruising?
Sun, 15 Jul 2007 15:53:52 +0200
So, you're sailing along happily on your 40' yacht (just you and your wife), some 200 miles from the nearest landfall and you see a boat ahead. As you get closer you notice that the vessel is lying very low in the water and the people aboard are waving their arms frantically. As you approach you see that the vessel is very close to sinking and there are about 20 men aboard - obviously a boatload of refugees. It appears that the boat is going down fast.
