Ultimate Classic Yacht
The ultimate gift that keeps on giving—payroll to the crew, boatyard, sailmakers…Without a doubt, a beautiful classic yacht for the holidays is one gift that peers cannot easily out-do. 1902 Shenandoah of Sark is teak over steel and LOA 54.35 metres/length at waterline 32.63 metres. Once owned by a prince of Italy, she can accommodate eight guests, plus crew. “Not only her beauty, but even her motion under sail resonates with a deep authenticity.” For €11,000,000 you too can resonate with deep authenticity. She’s listed for acquisition through Fraser (Boat International listing here), but you can experience her wealth for free on the vessel’s web site, SY Shend The ultimate gift that keeps on giving—payroll to the crew, boatyard, sailmakers…Without a doubt, a beautiful classic yacht.
T-boned at the Start Line?
It wasn’t so funny when it happened, but now that the boat’s been fixed (and 100 percent fault placed on the other boat owner) you can keep grilling that racer by sporting this beefy T. Actually though, you could probably use a new 2018 season shirt. Other helmsman who see your crew decked out in this shirt may think twice about barging. Cook up your own top on the Café Press site. A man’s version in black or white is around $19.95. Idea Number One of Holiday Gift Suggestions for Sailors: T-boned T-shirt
