Our new 17' Salish Voyager hit the water for the first time this week! While it's not done quite yet, this first rowing test helped us check the balance and make sure everything is working as designed before we finalize the interior. Even after only a few quick stokes of the oars it was clear... this boat is going to be a stellar traveler for long-distance journeys.
Enjoy the boat AND take tax benefits to offset the cost of ownership! We've developed good relationships with boutique charter companies in the Bahamas and the Caribbean where we place the boats. Our goal is that we don't represent the charter companies, we represent the buyer exclusively and we always have a seat at the table to represent our buyer. We help you find the right boat at the right price with the right program in the right location. Catamaran Guru is your safe harbor for yacht sales, yacht ownership, liveaboard lifestyle and sailing education, and charter management. Visit our website for insider details on how to own and operate a yacht for less than you think! Get expert yacht buyer assistance to ensure you buy the right boat for you and your dream.

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!
