by Alex

Face Cream Good For Windburn Of course it’s not just Moms who need to look after their skin; particularly out on the water when the full force of both the wind and sun are at play; but there’s no doubting that Moms are certainly some of the most conscious of such issues, typically being the most sensible member of the family.

Is the RYA PB2 Course Worth Doing?

by Alex

You don’t need to be a seasoned skipper to spot a maverick boat operator when you see one. Spend any length of time on the shores of a lake or in a marina on a busy summer’s day and you won’t have to wait long to see someone strike a pontoon or ‘swamp’ the water behind their boat with their outboard.

Why Don’t Boats Have Seat Belts?

Personally I’m more of a cruising fan than a speed freak, whenever I’ve been passenger on a speed boat up on plane, I’ve always been slightly nervous throughout the whole experience.

Say the words ‘English’ and ‘river’ in the same sentence and most people will automatically think of the river Thames. Thanks to its role as a defining landmark in the nation’s capital, the Thames will forever be known as the quintessential British river. As wonderful as the stretch of the Thames that runs through London […]

Do I Need to Fit an Electric Bilge Pump to My Boat?

In all my years as a marine engineer I have, almost as a matter of course, specified that both manual and electric bilge pumps be used in any design that will likely see water enter the bilge from time to time. Sometimes this also extends to the freeboard deck if water can become trapped above […]
