This DeFever 44 is bound to catch the eye of anyone looking for a reliable, comfortable, and capable cruiser—especially if you’re dreaming of long-range adventures or living aboard internationally. Designed by Arthur DeFever, a legend in the trawler world, this 44-foot flybridge motor yacht was his most popular model for good reason. It’s built tough with a solid fiberglass hull, a deep keel, and sturdy struts protecting the running gear, making it a seaworthy choice for tackling coastal waters. The displacement hull—steady and fuel-efficient—means you’re not burning through diesel like some lighter boats. You get a generous salon with a galley-up design—perfect for keeping the cook in the conversation—plus a full-beam master stateroom aft with a queen berth, ensuite head, and enough storage to settle in for months. The forward guest cabin has a V-berth for visitors, and the walk-in engine room is a mechanic’s dream—near stand-up headroom for easy maintenance. Add in the flybridge with its commanding views and roomy aft deck for lounging or entertaining, and you’ve got a boat that feels like a floating home without skimping on practicality. Owners love the walk-around decks for easy handling and the tender setup. For someone who values durability, comfort, and the freedom to roam, don’t let this one pass you by! https://www.yachtworld.com/yacht/1985-defever-44-trawler-9694624/

For the 5th time I was a speaker at the largest 4-day conference for trainers: the ATD International Conference & Expo. ATD (Association for Talent Development) hosts this event every year in May and about 10.000 learning professionals come to visit. My workshop was on day 4 and titled: ’10 Brainboosters in Online Training’: https://atd24.eventscribe.net/fsPopup.asp?efp=UUpZWUdDRFAyMDE4MA&PresentationID=1367655&rnd=0.5795186&mode=presInfo Around 400 learning professionals visited my session! I spoke about 10 facts and exercises that you can do as a live online trainer live that helps your audience focused during an online training, engaged and energetic. It’s a topic that many learning professionals found interesting, because they want people enjoying online sessions. I enjoyed giving the session about 10 brainboosters, I also told about the E-book 100 online teaching forms that I wrote and I sold E-books as well during that conference: https://experttrainers.nl/e-book-100-online-workingmethods/ The e-mails and LinkedIn messages of participants I received the day after, were very positive, so I was happy!

This spiky rubber ball looks tough… But when the hydraulic press comes down — it squishes, stretches, and finally bursts in a strangely satisfying way.
