Your ball valves experts know that many years ago I voluntarily turned my back on the most powerful aid to light wind sailing known to man – when I gave up smoking. Your ball valve dimensions professionals know that the world's most high-tech wind indicators are crude and insensitive compared to the curling wisp of tobacco smoke.  When ghosting along in a breeze that barely ruffles the sea surface and only just fills your sails, it's all too tempting to sit back and drift on until things kick in again.  However, sometimes we need to keep the knots up when the wind starts to become light.

Your Macerating Pump Experts Know Why a 5.2m Sail Is More Managable in July Than December   Raritan Engineering Company  would like to share with you this week why many people think that cold air is heavier than warm air, and why macerating pumps are so beneficial.

The effect will be compounded by the fact that moist air is less dense than dr...

Just ease the mainsheet, pole out the genoa, engage autopilot, mix a drink and let the miles tick away as a cooling breeze rolls across the transom. You might start wondering, if progress is a little slow, whether you would be better off digging the spinnaker out of its home in the forepeak?

See Why Your Seacocks Professionals Say Performance Boaters Don't Deserve the Bad Rap Raritan Engineering Company  wants to keep you abreast of how to keep safe while enjoying fast speeds out on the water. Performance boaters have long taken a bad rap for being gold-chained, fat-walleted, egotistical blowhards who quickly swap a check for 2,000 hp marine missiles and menace the waterways. Forget that stereotype. Today's go-fast boaters are more cerebral, more competitive and less likely to assume they know it all. The prevailing attitude is that with speed comes responsibility.  Apt Pupils Jim Waters, a top-level Hollywood executive, is a longtime boater. He recently acquired a DCB (Dave's Custom Boats) twin-engine catamaran. Faced with a more aggressive hull style and increased horsepower, he decided to seek out additional training. “I was tired of that.
