The Yacht Industry’s Finest

Fourteen Neptune awards will be issued, including best long distance voyager, best young designer, outstanding contributor to the industry, and yachts of the year in categories such as motor, refitted and sailing. Interested in attending? Alas, priority goes to yachtsmen. The rudderless can always watch the video.

Your Water Adventure Awaits
By Linda Tancs
Boating season is nearly underway or, in some cases, has already begun. Your water adventure awaits at Lake Powell, the majestic looking man-made lake along the Arizona/Utah border in the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. Of course, you can enjoy the tranquil beauty of the lake from the comfort of your spacious lakeview room or suite at the Lake Powell Resort. Or you can commune with nature on a luxury houseboat like the 75-feet Odyssey. The $12,000 price tag may seem a little steep, but if you gather up 12 of your closest friends to fill the quarters, then that’s only $1000 per person. Hey, what are friends for?

Boating Tips for Summer
By Linda Tancs
What better way to enjoy the open skies and starry heavens in summer than to go boating. Rivers, lakes and open seas are now full of yachts, motor boats and everything in between. As with any form of transportation, boating needs to be undertaken responsibly. In addition to Mother Nature’s rip currents, hurricanes and other occurrences, operator-generated errors and omissions wreak havoc from time to time. The U.S. Coast Guard publishes responsible boating guidelines that every operator and prospective passenger should read. Ship ahoy!
