Get Low-Cost, High Quality Boats From Used Boat Sales

By Andrew Roberts


Purchasing a boat can be a very expensive preposition if you are looking for a brand new boat. The level of investment needed for such a purchase could be beyond the reach of a lot of families in the middle income group. But fulfilling your dream is possible if you could purchase your favourite boat from brokers that deal with used boat sales.

Boats are the ultimate place for spending the much needed vacation with your family for those with a love of the sea. Used boat sales brokers offer boats that are fitted with most of the amenities that are needed in a boat that is used for spending your vacation. This is a major advantage as many new boats will be ill equipped for sailing straight away. So, if you are buying a new boat, you have the extra investment to purchase all these amenities and essentials as well.

The popularity of used boat sales is increasing swiftly and there are many centres and stores that offer this service to the customers. Some of the centres are also involved in repossessed boat sales, which is reselling of boats impounded by government authorities or financial institutions for reasons like non payment of financial dues. Centres that specialise in repossessed boat sale get impounded boats from financial institutions at nominal costs and resell the same at some margin of profit.

If you have decided to buy your boat from a used boat sales centre then make sure that the centre that you approach is a reliable and trustworthy source to buy from. Also make sure that the boat is not having any outstanding debt on it. Get maximum information about the maintenance cost of the boat and about the legal procedures that are needed for the transfer of ownership.

Modern yachts have efficient sail-plans, most notably the Bermuda rig, that allow them to sail towards the wind. This capability is the result of a sail-plan and hull design, typically a sloop rig, that utilizes Bernoulli's principle to generate lift.

Most monohulls larger than a dinghy require ballast, depending on the design ballast will be 20 to 50 percent of the displacement. The ballast is often integrated into their keels as large masses of lead or cast iron. This secures the ballast and gets it as low as possible to improve it's effectivness. External keels are cast in the shape of the keel. A monohull's keel is made effective by a combination of weight, depth and length.

Sailing Yacht's Propeller Energy Conversion?

Fri, 8 Jun 2007 18:03:13 +0200
I was just reading the thread on sailing yacht propellers and was wondering if anybody has ever used their propeller to generate electricity while under sail. Seems like it would be easy enough... just install a gear on the shaft and connect it to some form of small turbine.... I would think this could be a pretty efficient way to charge batteries, etc., while under sail but I've never heard anyone comment on it.

Tropical Depression Four ( TD 4 ) and Disturbance 91L - Atlantic storms.

Mon, 13 Aug 2007 20:05:53 +0200
Tropical Depression Four (TD 4 ) a storm in the Atlantic - this was designated late this morning. It's moving to the west, and I expect this motion to continue for the next 72 hours. I feel the NHC has a good track forecast right now, based on what I've seen in the forecast steering currents as mentioned this morning. This could change as this reaches T.S. or Hurricane status. I will continue to monitor that and put out a forecast if needed regarding any possible change. All interests in the Leeward Islands, Caribbean Islands, and Puerto Rico should monitor the progress of this system closely.
