WaveRunner is the trademarked name of personal water craft (PWC) produced by the Yamaha Motor Company, but the term "waverunner" has become a generic name for all types of personal watercraft. Another popular name for a PWC is called a Jet Ski.

A major component of an inflatable boat is obviously the fabric. Inflatable boat fabric technology has evolved greatly over the last 20 to 30 years, and now includes plastomers, polyurethanes and other fabrics, which can sometimes be stronger, lighter, thinner and less expensive to assemble than the original rubber fabrics. Of course it costs a great deal of money to develop new fabrics or even to switch manufacturing processes to use them. Many manufacturers, big and small, don't have the will or the resources to do this, and that's why they generally hide that fact by resorting to condemning new technological advances in fabrics.

40' - 45' Bluewater Cruiser?!

Fri, 24 Oct 2008 19:10:48 +0200
I'm looking to purchase my first sailboat and I am in need of some guidance. I was leaning towards a steel or aluminum hull but most do not have a swim step and walk through transom. It sounds kind of odd but the is a top criteria for me. Three reasons: it is easier to land big fish, it is easiers to board from a tender, and I have a dog who loves the water and if she jumps I need to get her back aboard somehow. Do you know of any steel hulled sloop or cutter rigs that have a walk through transom and a swim step?! I am looking at the 40'-45' range.

Navigation software - what is good for use on a sailing yacht?

Mon, 13 Aug 2007 19:45:17 +0200
Hi, just a quick question - I've been looking for navigation software and found there is lots of it for sailing yachts. I came across a program called Software on Board that runs C Maps. So, I was just wondering if anyone has this and can tell me what it's like. Can anyone tell me what type of GPS antenna would be best (an internal or an external)? My boat is aluminium and I'm not sure how the signal would go through aluminium, and, is the accuracy of these units as good as each other?

Do You Want A Boat?

By Trevor Kugler
Trevor KuglerLevel: Platinum20 year fishing addict, especially ultralight river fishing ...


Do you want a boat, but have found out that traditional boats are amazingly expensive? A traditional boat can be quite expensive, not only in the actual cost of the boat, but then also in gas running the boat and getting the boat from here to there. Wanting a boat and actually getting a boat are two completely different things. However, there are cost effective alternatives to tradition boats that should probably be explored.

The cost effective alternative to a traditional boat is an inflatable boat. I'm not talking about inflatable boats like the ones that are used in pools either. I'm referring to quality inflatable boats that are amazingly durable. So durable in fact, that they can stand up to dogs paws and class IV rapids! And how do you like the idea of being able to store your boat in the trunk of your car or in the storage of your RV? Being able to do that is almost the definition of convenience.

Inflatable boats come in a variety of styles as well. You can get quality inflatable kayaks, canoes, pontoon boats, motor mount boats, pontoon boats, and even small inflatable sailboats! The list of the types of boats available is quite impressive, and the convenience they provide is almost unmatched. There are a lot of very unique and functional aspects to owning a quality inflatable boat.

Imaging being able to float naturally down your favorite river, fishing and just taking in the wonders of nature, all while riding your own personal pontoon boat. How relaxing and wonderful does that sound? Imagine the areas of the river that would be open to you when compared to simply walking and wading your way along the river? Yea, if you want a boat, a quality inflatable may well be the way to go. Not only that, but with the money you save from purchasing an inflatable you can buy some new fishing equipment or toys for the kids.

Hints On sea doo challenger

A yacht is a recreational boat. It designates two rather different classes of watercraft, sailing and power yachts. Yachts are differentiated from working ships mainly by their leisure purpose. It was not until the ascendancy of the steamboat and other types of powerboat that sailing vessels in general came to be perceived as luxury items. However, since the level of luxury on larger yachts has seen an increasing trend, the use of the word yacht to mean any sailing vessel has been diminishing and is more and more limited to racing yachts or cruising yachts.

A jetboat is a boat propelled by a jet of water ejected from the back of the craft. Unlike a powerboat or motorboat that uses a propeller in the water below or behind the boat, a jetboat draws the water from under the boat into a pump-jet inside the boat, then expels it through a nozzle at the stern.
