YACHT Magazine’s Post

Here are links to my Clipper Ventures // Clipper Round the World Yacht Race Blogs 10 & 11 for Marlow Ropes Ltd These blogs describe the epic North Pacific crossing in my circumnavigation, sailing from Zhuhai to Qingdao (Race 9) and then onward to Seattle (Race 10). With the Race finish in sight just over a month away now, key takeaways from my offshore race journey so far include: Preparation is paramount! After observing that smooth and efficient manoeuvres often rely on pre-preparation, ensuring that all their lines and jammers are readily accessible before the action starts is vital. This simple step not only prevents line damage but also minimises wear and tear on other critical equipment.

Your life > Yacht Saving a million $ yacht is not the priority! Your life is. A yacht will burn into rubble in less than 5 minutes! That’s why practicing to suit up in less than 2 minutes is really important if you’re working on a yacht. If you’re interested in a No-BS breakdown of anything related to yachting, shoot me a message. 📩 I’ve been working with a small group of friends in the industry, showing them how to get started without wasting time and money! 💡 Chat soon, Byron Kriek #yachting #yachtcrew #stcw #marinefirefighting

Last Saturday we decided it was time to dust off the fins and get back in the water in preparation for the coming season with a local 35m dive. A post winter shakedown dive before we head back out to the deeper sites to the West of Rottnest. Conditions caught a few of us by surprise with visibility low and a very strong current heading north up the coast from the marine park off Hilarys. We had 12 on the boat with a mix of CCR and OC and we ended up having to pull anchor and retrieve 8 of the 12 in the fast current. Well done to all who adhered to the basics and kept together as much as possible and deployed SMBs for the skipper to see. It was great to see people properly equipped for ocean boat diving and also following checklists for pre flight checks. After our usual post dive debrief we got to share some of the good things done and some of the areas for improvement amongst the divers and the boat crew, all working as a team. Always carry the basics for open water and always deploy SMBs as a group so the skipper can count who is in the water, who is on the boat, or who may be missing. Well done to all and it was great to get back out there even if it was a little chilly in the water. #wrecksploration #technicaldiving #ccrdiving #exploration

It's easy to ignore the inevitable. One day, you won't be in yachting anymore. And that day might come sooner and more unexpectedly than you think. If your career in yachting ended today, would you be ready? Do you have a financial plan in place to help you make the most of the unique financial opportunity yachitng offers you? #superyacht #yfsol #yachtlife #yachting #crew #yachtie

The Daniel J. Morrell was over 600 feet long and a giant steel Great Lakes Freighter. On November 29th 1966 it broke in half in a violent storm with icy cold waves over 25 feet tall. Only one man out of the crew of 29 survived the shipwreck after 37 horrific hours on a raft surrounded by 3 fellow crewmen that had already died. The stern motored another 5 miles closer to shore before it finally sank beneath the surface into 215 feet of water. No one from the stern survived and this eerie video shows areas inside the pristine engine room where the men would have worked. Haunting reminders that a job on the Great Lakes was a dangerous one. I've been diving the shipwreck since 2016 and have close to two dozen dives on the stern section documenting different areas including the engine room. Inside you see catwalks working your way down to the engine, ladders, a telegraph, General Alarm that would have run as the ship was sinking. A workbench with tools and above it a light bulb still intact alog with glass jars full of nuts and bolts. I have seen this area change over the years. It could be rust and that objects are just falling or it could be divers. If you do penetrate this wreck please be careful and mindful of your fin kicks and bubbles knowing things down. Once it's broken it can't be replaced. Anytime a shipwreck penetration is done in 37f/3c water temps at a depth of 208ft / 62m we put a lot of planning into it. We are using closed circuit rebreathers for safety and to not stir up sediment. We have safety gas, safety divers and overhead training. I collaborated with my buddy Jeff Lindsay on this dive. We were both shooting video to put tis sequence together. https://lnkd.in/eypvxZyv #GreatLakes #shipwreck #underwaterExploration #maritimeHistory #shipwreckDiving #rebreatherDiving #underwaterPhotography #deepSeaDiving #exploringTheUnknown #underwaterengineroom #wreckpenetration #wreckdiving #shipwreckphotography

THE ULTIMATE DIVING MACHINE💦 The Seabreacher represents a dramatic breakthrough in recreational boating. Over ten years of meticulous engineering and extensive testing have resulted in a very safe and stable watercraft that can endure the continuous punishment of the marine environment. Each Seabreacher is hand built to the individual customer’s desired specifications. Available in Shark style X model, Killer Whale Y mode, or Dolphin style Z model; each Seabreacher is a unique creation where customers can select from a vast array of individualized options. Unlike conventional watercraft that only operate on a two dimensional plane, the Seabreacher operates more like an aircraft with full three axis of control – pitch, roll, and yaw. This allows the vessel to carve left and right, jump over, dive under, and cut though the waves. Our latest model is even capable of 360 degree barrel rolls on the water! The organic lines of the vessel’s sculpted body present an unforgettable sight, like the twisted union of a marine mammal and a high performance fighter jet. Would you try? What design would suit you best? *** If you enjoy my content, follow Peter Berkel for more in the future! #innovation #technology #motivation #marketing #branding #personalbranding #digitalmarketing #creativity #future #futurism #hiringandpromotion
