  5. Another year, another Cowes Week on the Isle of Wight in the United Kingdom. Not a bad event, but given it was the 200th year it could have been better in parts.

  7. You too can get a deal! It's only the cost of a small condo for a one week rental. Grab a deal while you can! 🤦🏽‍♂️

  9. In an atmosphere already saturated with CO₂, luxury emissions are not harmless ‘lifestyle choices’ but deliberate shots fired into the sky whose impacts land hardest on the poorest and most vulnerable to climate chaos.

    Time to BAN private jets and superyachts.

  11. Finishing the #jigsaw was eventually completed in a bit of a rush. We became increasingly fed up with having too little room on the dining table to eat!

    You may detect some of my frustration in my ALT Text.

    We're still to take the thing to the #picture #framer.

    If you're into jigsaws or #boats you might care to look at this:

    That jigsaw now hangs over the bed in our guest room, it shows a collection of #yachts being prepared for hire at a #boatyard on the #norfolkbroads.

  15. I title this one "Welcome Home, Billionaires", because when you've got a vessel like this, *where else* could you possibly fit in, if not the Principality of Monaco? And if you're someone like me who'd like to have one, where else to be on a night like that was, if not a room with a view...

    Bobbing Boat doesn't tell the whole story of #UK #canal #boat #licencing. It's not just length, there are different rates for private boats and hire boats. And I forget the arrangements for continuously cruising #liveaboard #boaters.

    I recall that the boats I owned a 1/12th shared in were classed as a #hireboat, although, typically, such boats cruised for about 48 weeks a year, while a typical holiday hire boat only cruises about 36 weeks a year, which is why I can understand the thought that length should not be the sole criteria.

    It's different again on the #NorfolkBroads. Licencing is on the basis of area (length x beam) and there are multiple classes with the biggest discounts for #yachts, smaller ones for auxiliary yachts, electric powered craft and so on. Not to mention different rates for hire boats.

    And just don't ask about the UK's Boat Safety Scheme! #BSS

  18. The yachts sailing in the 2026 Doyles two hands around the North Island race sailing out of #doubtlessbay after a 9.00 a.m. start. #aotearoa #yachts
