The flourishing dive site, New York, filmed at Green Island by Great Adventures dive crew. If you were wondering where the dive site gets its name, the site has a series of gutters running up to the top of the reef flat, which according to Peter Tibbs (the original Dive school of Cairns) appears like streets running down between the skyscrapers of “New York”.

I was told I could earn an 11% return by putting my yacht into charter. Is that true? It's a question we hear more often than you might think. The reality is that every charter program is different, and understanding the full picture is far more important than focusing on a single number. If you're considering charter ownership, join us for our upcoming Business Yacht Ownership webinar on August 25, where we'll break down how the charter program works, what to expect, and how to determine whether it's the right fit for your goals. Register through the link in my bio.

The Crazy Waters Bridge in Chalkis sits at the narrowest point between Evia and the mainland, where the strait is only about 38 meters wide. Because so much water is forced through this tiny opening, extremely strong currents are created — the reason sailors call it the “Crazy Waters.” The bridge is in the middle of the city and opens only once a day to avoid disrupting the constant road traffic. Boats may only pass at slack tide, the brief moment every six hours when the water is calmest. That’s why sailors often go through at strange times like 1:30 or 3:00 a.m. While waiting, boats are not allowed to tie up along the quay because the turbulence is so strong that it would be dangerous. Instead, everyone must anchor in the bay and wait for instructions from Port Control. We anchored there with about fifteen other boats and waited until slack tide at night. At midnight, Port Control suddenly called all boats in order — we were number three. Passing the bridge in the dark was surreal: strong currents below, quiet city lights above. The bridge didn’t lift; it actually slid sideways into the quay walls, disappearing completely. Once through, we moored safely just 100 meters further in the city. Experiencing this natural phenomenon at night, in such a narrow and powerful channel, was something I will not quickly forget!
