Το Women in Yachting Conference σχεδιάστηκε από την ONDECK Events με στόχο να γίνει ένα δυναμικό βήμα διαλόγου, έμπνευσης και συνεργασιών. Η διοργάνωση τόνισε ότι η ισότητα δεν αποτελεί μόνο ηθική επιταγή, αλλά και στρατηγικό πλεονέκτημα για τις επιχειρήσεις του σήμερα. Αναδείχθηκε η ανάγκη για: πολιτικές που στηρίζουν τη γυναικεία επιχειρηματικότητα, ευκαιρίες κατάρτισης και mentoring, εργασιακά περιβάλλοντα που προάγουν τη συμπερίληψη, δίκαιη εκπροσώπηση σε ηγετικές θέσεις, ενίσχυση της ορατότητας νέων γυναικείων προτύπων. Οι συζητήσεις των πάνελ, από τις πρωτοπόρες που άνοιξαν δρόμους σε έναν απαιτητικό χώρο, μέχρι τις νέες επαγγελματίες της τεχνολογίας, του σχεδιασμού και της βιωσιμότητας, ανέδειξαν τον καταλυτικό ρόλο των γυναικών στο μέλλον του κλάδου. Ένα συνέδριο που ανοίγει νέους ορίζοντες Η ONDECK Events δεσμεύεται να συνεχίσει και να επεκτείνει τον θεσμό, θέτοντας τις βάσεις για ακόμη πιο στοχευμένες δράσεις τα επόμενα χρόνια. Το Women in Yachting δεν ήταν απλώς μια ημερίδα· ήταν μια εμπειρία που άγγιξε καρδιές, ενεργοποίησε συνειδήσεις και άνοιξε νέους ορίζοντες για το μέλλον του κλάδου. Οι συμμετέχοντες συμφώνησαν ότι η ενίσχυση της γυναικείας παρουσίας στο yachting δεν είναι μόνο αναγκαία, αλλά αποτελεί παράγοντα ανάπτυξης, που εμπλουτίζει όλη τη βιομηχανία με νέες δεξιότητες, οπτικές και συνέργειες. 📌 Αν αγαπάτε τη θάλασσα, την καινοτομία, τις επιχειρήσεις αυτή η σειρά είναι για εσάς. 📲 Ακολουθήστε μας: 🔵 Facebook: www.facebook.com/SkipperONDECK/ 📸 Instagram: www.instagram.com/ondeck_mag/ 📲 Ακολουθήστε μας και στο TikTok για behind-the-scenes, highlights και mini-interviews: 👉 www.tiktok.com/@skipper.ondeck

In this interview, Bill Dixon, Chairman of Dixon Yacht Design, reflects on his four decades in yacht design—from early work with Angus Primrose to leading one of the industry’s most respected studios. Dixon discusses the shift toward lifestyle-focused cruising boats, easier handling, and the influence of high-performance sailing on modern production yachts. His team works with global builders including Moody, Hylas, Xquisite, Heysea, Beneteau, and Pearl Yachts, with standout projects like the Moody Deck Saloon series, Hylas 57, and Xquisite 60. Dixon sees sustainability, electric propulsion, and new wind-assist technologies as major forces shaping future yacht design.

Was passiert eigentlich, wenn der Skipper kurz vor dem Törn krank wird oder aus anderen Gründen nicht mitfahren kann? Reicht dann eine normale Reiserücktrittsversicherung – oder brauchst du als Charter-Skipper etwas anderes? In diesem Video geht es um die Grundidee einer Reiserücktrittsversicherung speziell für Charter-Skipper und darum, wann der gesamte Törn erstattet werden kann. Alle Details, Beispiele und eine Checkliste findest du im Artikel im Segler-Portal: https://segler-portal.de/blogs/2258/Reiser%C3%BCcktrittskosten-Versicherung-Skipper-krank-kann-die-gesamte-Charter-storniert-werden #Reiserücktritt #Charter #Skipper #Yachtcharter

The Southerly 480 is looking shipshape! In this latest update, Head of Yacht Sales, Alex Tucker, walks us through the deck-to-hull process. #SoutherlyYachts #WithoutLimits #Sailing #Shipyard #BoatBuilding #SailingYacht

We finish sailing across the Atlantic after 28 days at sea and arrive at Horta on the island of Faial, Azores. We had to sail very conservatively to protect the rigging so the journey ended up taking much longer than we had hoped. Getting into port with the rig still up was our priority, so we took the win 😁 We are very pleased to have made the crossing back to the Azores from the Caribbean. Nova Vita performed brilliantly the whole way. The rigging was repaired whilst we were here. We ordered 2 new inners which came from the mainland and which we fitted ourselves (a simple task). Horta is a great place to spend some time and it was good to relax here after the crossing.

This Holterman 53 Commander is a unique motor yacht that’s built for effortless, comfortable time on the water. She’s fully equipped for year-round cruising, with central heating, a warm and modern interior, and smart storage solutions throughout the yacht. Onboard living is a real highlight: two spacious cabins provide four berths, and the galley comes with extensive kitchen appliances, plus a UV drinking-water filter system for added peace of mind. Handling is made easy with spud poles at the front and rear, and everything can be controlled via the Yachtcontrol system — even from your mobile phone, whenever you like. Come and see her soon at our sales marina. Want to see her in person? Contact De Valk Loosdrecht for more details. https://www.devalk.nl/en/yachtbrokerage/811618/HOLTERMAN-53-COMMANDER.html

Unique, spacious, and built for serious comfort: meet the Bendie Impressive 2300. With 23 metres in length and a 5.70m beam, she offers outstanding room for extended cruising or even full-time living onboard. She’s generously equipped for year-round use, including double glazing, central heating and air conditioning, so you stay comfortable in any season. Underway, twin Cummins 355hp engines deliver a relaxed cruising speed of around 7.5 knots. Handling is refreshingly easy thanks to hydraulic bow and stern thrusters, and she also features a spud pole for confident positioning when you want to stay put. Now available to view at our covered sales marina in Loosdrecht. Want to see her in person?

This 2010 Beneteau 57 is a true globetrotter in every sense. Sailed around the world by her first and only owner, she’s a yacht with real bluewater experience and the kind of practical equipment you only build up when you actually go the distance. She’s impressively well equipped for life offshore and life at anchor: air conditioning for the tropics, a watermaker for true independence, and solar panels for quiet, self-sufficient cruising. Add the Beneteau 57’s spacious, comfortable interior and you’ve got a strong platform for long-range sailing with friends or family. Of course, a well-travelled yacht comes with a bit of character. She’ll need some TLC here and there, but she’s more worldly than worn out, and she’s an excellent base for the next owner who wants a solid, comfortable bluewater cruiser with a great story. Want to see her in person? Contact De Valk Hindeloopen for more details. https://www.devalk.nl/en/yachtbrokerage/810809/BENETEAU-57.html

Inspecting a previous repair on my 2010 Precision 18 sailboat after finishing the sailing season in Colorado. Last year, I noticed my stern horn cleats were loose, the sealant at the deck had been broken, and they needed to be re-bedded. All boats require regular maintenance and re-bedding horn cleats, chain plates and other deck hardware is just a normal part of sailboat maintenance and ownership. Since the factory installation of the horn cleats only used stainless steel washers as backing, I decided to add a 1/2" HDPE board as a backing block to help strengthen the mounting location. I used JB Marine Weld epoxy and 3M 5200 sealant along with new stainless bolts, washers and lock nuts for this project.

► Vous n'êtes pas encore abonné à Multicoques Mag ? Profitez de notre promotion « deux mois gratuits » en vous abonnant à notre newsletter : https://bit.ly/4nyYumY ► Rendez-vous a été pris le 2 décembre à Port-Pin-Rolland, la marina qui appartient au Groupe Catana. Il ne fait pas très chaud, évidemment, mais le vent établi à 15/16 nœuds et le plan d’eau juste un peu clapoteux garantissent d’excellentes conditions d’essais... ► Malgré ses 20 tonnes, le remplaçant du 4.8 et du 5.4 parvient à tenir les 7 nœuds de moyenne au près bon plein et grimpe même à 10 nœuds avec le Code 0. ► A bord, on retrouve toutes les caractéristiques du 5.8 – porte arrière basculante, porte avant, pontage intégral et immense flybridge. La coque #1 que nous avons essayée était une 1 + 3 cabines, mais le 5.2 se décline en 3 cabines, en 4 cabines 2 + 2 ou encore en 5 voire 6 cabines (plus d’éventuelles pointes avant). Le construceur offre de nombreuses possibilités de personnalisation de sorte que ce catamaran se prête à différents programmes. On note le maintien d’une vraie table à cartes « classique » face à la marche – à ceci près que cet emplacement devient un véritable poste de commande 100 % connecté. ► Descriptif technique : Constructeur : Bali Catamarans Architecte : Xavier Faÿ Design intérieur : Agence Berco Design et Piaton Yacht Design Longueur : 15,40 m Largeur : 8,16 m Tirant d’eau : 1,40 m Déplacement lège : 19,15 t Surface de voile : 146 m2 Motorisation : 2 x 57 à 115 ch Carburant : 1 200 l Prix : 953 000 € HT ► Abonnez-vous GRATUITEMENT à la chaîne YouTube de Multicoques Mag dès maintenant – https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Connectez-vous à notre site Web pour découvrir plus de 600 essais !

Join us in St. Francis Bay for the joyful launch of Balance 526 Instinct — the final boat to roll out of the St. Francis factory for 2025. As is tradition, the Balance Catamarans team walked the yacht from the factory down to the port, joined by the owners. With a touch of Christmas spirit in the air, the crew donned festive Santa caps, adding warmth and humour to the occasion. As dusk settled and everyone waited for the spring high tide to arrive under a glowing full moon, Instinct lit up the marina with her Christmas lights — a fitting moment of celebration to close out a remarkably busy year for the St. Francis yard. 2025 has seen multiple Balance 526s completed, including two of the new 580s, with another 580 already preparing for launch early in the new year. 🎉 Congratulations to the owners of Balance 526 Instinct — may this beautiful catamaran carry you safely across oceans and into countless adventures.

The Royal Varuna Yacht Club in Thailand is a hidden gem, with a stunning view towards Ko Lan, a small island in the Gulf of Thailand. During the winter months in the northern hemisphere, the Royal Varuna Yacht Club can give visiting sailors some of the best warm water sailing available. The club welcomes guests from around the world and has accommodation on-site, a beautiful clubhouse while enjoys the most amazing sunsets, great facilities including full bar and restaurant, and super-friendly staff who are ready to help with whatever you need. We take a close look at the club, talking to key people to find out more about its history and ethos, as well as the thriving sailing school which has been nurturing young sailors who have gone on to represent Thailand at the Olympics, and win huge World Championships in classes such as the Optimist. he club hosts a number of world-class events and training camps, and in early 2026 will be hosting the ILCA Thailand National Championship, the Royal Varuna Yacht Club Open Masters Championship for ILCA 4, 6, 7 and International OK dinghies, and the OK Thailand Open Nationals. The club also hosts World Championships for major dinghy classes. There is also a thriving catamaran section with large fleets of Formula 18s, Dart 18s and Hobie 16s. For foiling sailors the incredible Switch dinghy is built nearby at Element 6 Evolution, and it's an ideal place to learn to fly. Royal Varuna Yacht Club organises the world-famous King's Cup Regatta, held in December every year, which is well established for keelboats and has a growing dinghy fleet. If you are looking for a way to escape the cold in Europe or North America, and keep your sailing up during the winter, then there's possibly no better place on earth to do so. The only warning is that you may not leave! Find out more about the club at https://www.varuna.org/ and view the upcoming regatta schedule at https://www.varuna.org/regattas #sailing #paradise #thailand

Season 5 begins! After months of preparation, we’re finally turning west and starting our Indian Ocean adventure. Our first passage is a big one — 1,100 nautical miles from Thailand to Sri Lanka, our first multi-day sail in over a year. The ocean gave us gentle winds, rolling blue swells, and time to fall back into the rhythm of night watches… until things got interesting. As we approached the Andaman Islands and prepared to transit the Sombrero Channel, we were intercepted and hailed by an Indian warship over VHF. From calm seas to heart-rate rising moments, and then onwards toward the vibrant coastline of Sri Lanka, this passage is the beginning of something huge — a brand new season of adventure, challenge, and discovery. Come aboard. Season 5 starts now. 🌏⛵ 🌊 Join Our Sailing Family Adventure! We’re the Fothergills – a family of six living full-time aboard our catamaran, Happy Days.

This video is a winter harbor walk through the second half of Heritage Harbor in Wrangell, Alaska, as snow moves in fast and daylight disappears early in Southeast Alaska. We take you dock-to-dock through the Wrangell harbor, sharing working boats, liveaboard life in Alaska, commercial fishing vessels, abandoned boats, and the quiet rhythm of winter settling in along the docks. Along the way, we also share a relaxed Day 18 update on our plan to head north—where things stand with our Alaska boat journey, how winter weather and short daylight are influencing the timeline, and why we’re letting the season lead instead of forcing a Gulf of Alaska crossing. We also run into our friend, a commercial fisherman, processing stripe shrimp on his fishing boat—one of those classic harbor moments that reminds us why we love Alaska harbor life and working waterfronts. There’s no rush here today, other than Scott’s hands nearly going numb and wanting to go grab some professional commercial fishing photos for our friend. We enjoyed the squid (free calamari!), some unexpected dockside conversations, and a peaceful winter walk through Wrangell. If you enjoy liveaboard boat life, winter boating in Alaska, harbor walks, commercial fishing boats, and real-time updates from life aboard in Southeast Alaska, you’re in the right place. Thanks for walking the harbor with us. – Audrey & Scott

We’ve officially brought the old crew back together. Brett, Ayanna, me (Jade), plus our salty sea dogs Dingo and Penny — five souls, two days across the Atlantic, with about seventeen more to go before we reach the other side where Ayanna’s newly purchased boat is waiting for her. We’re uploading these videos in near real time from the middle of the ocean. As you watch this, we’re still somewhere out here on the deep blue, rolling with whatever today throws at us. No polished edits. No retakes. Just raw life at sea — sleep-deprived shifts, wing-on-wing sailing, dog ear surgeries, laundry strung across the cockpit, fishing attempts, spa day braids, DIY safety gear, and the daily dance with the weather. Today’s episode is a full window into what it really looks like to sail across an ocean with your best friends, your partner, and two adventure-loving pups.

ISLAND TIME might be one of the best-maintained Meridian 381's on the West Coast. Her efficient, well-maintained 5.9 L B-series Cummins (only 890 hours, maintenance up to date!) allows her to cruise comfortably at 17 knots. Dependable bow and stern thrusters make it easy to dock and anchor even if the weather is less than perfect. For long-range, you can cruise economically at 8 knots with one engine, using only 2.5 gph. The 9 kW Onan Diesel generator has only 345 hours! POSSIBLE Kona Kai Club slip transfer! Please come and inspect ISLAND TIME for yourself; it is very well-loved and professionally maintained to high standards.

What the hell happened to catamarans? The multihull market is falling off a cliff. Boats that once sold in a bidding frenzy are now sitting idle—collecting dust and dropping prices like dead weight. This isn't a dip; it's a full-on market crash. We're diving into 5 brutal reasons why catamaran prices are suddenly CHEAP and why the "floating condo" dream turned into a financial bust: The Post-Pandemic Hangover: Why thousands of new owners are now dumping lightly used cats. Ownership Costs Catching Up: Why two hulls mean double the maintenance (and expensive, specialized slips). Brutal Depreciation: Why these luxury vessels suffer car-level depreciation, losing massive value in just 2-5 years. Supply Flood: The economic reality of too many sellers and not enough cautious buyers. Dock Queens: Why dream boats are turning into floating liabilities that owners just want out of. If you’ve been waiting for the storm to break, this might be your moment—but you need to go in with eyes wide open. ⏱️ CHAPTERS: 00:00 Intro: The Catamaran Crash 00:41 1.

Join Capt. Jay Williams for a clear, real-world breakdown the major sailboat rudder designs: skeg-hung, spade, twin rudders, and aperture/keel-mounted rudders. Whether you’re evaluating a bluewater cruiser, buying your first sailboat, or simply want to understand how rudder design impacts safety, handling, and performance, this episode gives you the knowledge every sailor should have. Jay draws from a lifetime at sea—cruising, running commercial vessels, managing shipyards, and overseeing new builds—to explain how each rudder type performs in real conditions: offshore swell, tight maneuvering, grounding scenarios, and heavy-weather helming. This is the practical, experience-based insight you won’t get from a textbook. ⚓ What Jay Covers in This Video The structural and performance differences between skeg-hung, spade, twin, and aperture rudders Which designs offer the best protection, steering feel, efficiency, and redundancy How rudder type influences offshore reliability and maintenance requirements Why some modern performance cruisers favor twin rudders How older full-keel and aperture designs behave under sail and power This video is essential for sailors considering a long-range cruiser, passagemaker, performance yacht, or classic full-keel sailboat — and for anyone who wants to understand the most critical steering component on a boat. If you have questions about sailboat systems, offshore readiness, or purchasing the right yacht for your goals, contact Jay Williams at David Walters Yachts. 📞 Jay Williams – David Walters Yachts: 305-788-1121 📧 Email: jay@davidwaltersyachts.com 🌐 davidwaltersyachts.com – Search all listings and market reports Sailboat rudders, skeg hung rudder, skeg rudder, spade rudder, twin rudders, aperture rudder, keel hung rudder, rudder design, rudder types explained, bluewater sailboat design, sailboat steering, boat rudder maintenance, offshore cruising safety, sailboat survey tips, cruising yacht design, yacht rudder failure, rudder bearings, sailboat handling, modern performance cruisers, full keel boats, sailboat basics, sailing education, Captain Jay Williams, David Walters Yachts
