Ever wish you could find an easy way to go sailing? This little catamaran might be the answer. You can make one in a few days for very little money, even free if you can scrounge the materials. Here's the story of my first 'cat', made in the bush in Brazil. More info at my Web site RebelCat.com. Correction on the size of the sail: 3 by 2 meters, not 4 by 3. Sail on!

When he collected vintage cars, for instance, he had the world's largest collection of Bugatti automobiles. And when he decided to pursue a lifelong dream and build a sailing yacht, he went the whole nine yards: He decided it would be the world's largest yacht--big enough to fit Noah's Ark on its deck. He wanted it to sail at a record 26 knots, under unprecedented physical forces. And, he thought, having built this marine wonder, why not use it to try to smash the 155--year--old world sailing record from New York to San Francisco around Cape Horn?
Thus the Maltese Falcon--the largest private sailing vessel ever constructed--was born.
Perkins is a sailor as well as a dreamer, and he loves the romantic idea of sailing--and the magnificent ships of yore with names like Cutty Sark and Sea Witch that conjured up images of speed and danger. So Perkins set out to build "the perfect yacht"--as long as a football field, 42 feet wide, and with three masts so tall they will just fit under the great suspension bridges of the world. The Maltese Falcon, as he's dubbed his ship (since its home berth will be Malta), will use technology no clipper skipper ever imagined--a rig with no sheets, no stays, no halyards--just free--standing, rotating carbon fiber masts with 18 sails surging freely in the wind. At $87 million, it will be a technological marvel--as complex as the man himself. The famed Perini Navi yard in Turkey put the Falcon in the water in 2006, ready for sea trials.
There is some competition to the title of the grandest yacht of all--the Athena (being built by Netscape founder Jim Clark) and the Mirabella V (being built by Avis Car Rental magnate Joe Vittoria). Athena will be the largest sloop, and Mirabella V the largest schooner. But the Maltese Falcon will be a marvel of mechanics, engineering, and techonology, married with the romance of the age of sail, dressed out in the finest accommodations money can buy and the human mind can imagine. More than just the story of the boat, The Falcon is a broader profile of the combination of ambition, recklessness, bravado, and achievements of a 21st century entrepreneur and his time.

Skipper Alex Thomson had spotted the oncoming ship when she was still a good five miles away, but the cargo ship failed to see the black Hugo Boss monohull -- and consequently, was at fault in the incident.
According to the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, published by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) also states that "Except in narrow channels, traffic schemes, and when overtaking, a power-driven vessel must give way to a sailing vessel." Again, fault goes to the cargo ship, whose responsibility it was to steer away from the sailing Open 60.
The duo aboard Hugo Boss tried to avoid the collision by altering their course a few degrees, which caused the vessel to end up on its side. Not only did Hugo Boss recover, but from December 6th--7th, the team set a new 24-hour record for monohulls up to 60 foot -- 492.7 miles.
Next up: Meet the Miami Mermaids. Made up of three Mur-people: Mermaid Medina, Mermaid Misty and even a MerMALE, MerTini, this trio can be hired to swim in your pool or simply hang around "shipwrecked" (as they call it) when there is no pool or water.
Find our more on their website at http://www.MiamiMermaids.net or visit the Miami Mermaids' MySpace page ( http://www.MySpace.com/miamimermaids ) where, in their Top Friends section, you'll find signs of an entire mermaid culture: You'll not only find the Florida Keys Marine Mammal Rescue Team, but even some of their other mermaid pals.
Next up: When studying their insurance case files, BoatUS (the Boat Owners Association of the United States) found that 40 percent of the sinkings on file were caused by vessels striking a submerged object. Another 16 percent of reported sinking cases held that it was a broken prop shaft or strut that was responsible.
In today's episode, we give you five BoatUS tips on how to prevent your sailboat from becoming another statistic.

If you were some tiling I would grout you,
If you were a rulebook I would flout you all the same
If you were football you would be my favourite game
If you were an onion I would munch you
If you were banker I would lunch you for a loan
If you were off work I've got a hunch I'd stay at home!
Chorus
If you were ten pints of beer
I would drink you down, my dear,
And collapse upon the floor
Ten pints of lager is, I fear
Too much for me and that's for sure!
If you were the A66, I'd use you
And cut ten minutes off my usual journey's hell
If you were a fish shop I would love that fishy smell.
If you were a peppercorn I'd grind you
If you were Jarvis Cocker I'd remind you to have a bath
And then I would take you for meal just for a laugh.
If you were a pool I'd chlorinate you
If you were an attic, insulate you is what I would do
If you were a radio station I'd tune into you
If you were a radio station I'd tune into you Auteur : spicyapple604 Tags:Katie Melua Pictures Sailboat Video Parody Radcliffe Radio2  |
