Bowman 42 yacht- Builds on the fine heritage of the popular Bowman 40 and incorporates a host of refinements including a deeper draft with new skeg and rudder profile, which has provided enhanced sailing performance. Her paces were shown in the ARC Transatlantic Rally where the Bowman 42 "Eternity of Hamble" won her class and finished 5th overall, one of the four yachts from the Rival Bowman yard taking part in the event. The Bowman 42 combines the skills of top cruising yacht designer; Chuck Paine, with the exceptional building expertise of the Rival Bowman craftsmen. The interior layout of the Bowman 42 can be tailored to an owner's specification, providing the yacht with an individual custom-built character. Whatever the chosen layout, the accommodation will share the style and craftsmanship which has earned Bowman an enviable reputation for quality.

Repairing a inflatable boat yourself is a difficult and often costly task. It is a complex procedure and the glue, solvents, fabrics and tools required are not easy to get and are usually expensive. However, most dealers stock these items and will sell you them, some will even offer directions and advice. Be warned though that "self repairs" may end in a visit to the dealer anyways, so a dealer evaluation before you try is always the best idea to determine the difficulty of the repair.

This analysis of reported attempted attacks on Yachts sailing the world has been carried out by Cruiserlog Moderators in order to evaluate the events/incidents from a cruisers point of view. It is not meant to be a criticism of the ICC International Maritime Bureau's Piracy Report Center's Q3 report for 2007. They receive reports from ships, boats and yachts and précis these for publication in their weekly piracy report which is then widely circulated. It is probable that the IMB is not able to check the veracity of the initial incident, therefore having to accept it at face value even though it may sound incomplete, inaccurate or even exaggerated.
