My wife and I are looking to do sailing trip in the Greek Islands. We do not want to sail the boat ourselves, but would like to be on a mid-size ship/sailing yacht to see a few islands. Any suggestions?

And how to they work? How does the combination of wind, sails, hull, steering, and keel work together? How does the force provided by the wind is “used”?

Please cite your sources. Thanks

West and the Yacht named Terner is sailing due North. Two hrs. later, the 2 yachts are 17km apart. At that time, the port’s radar system shows that the High Seas is 17km apart. At that time, the port’s radar system shows that the Terner is 7km farther from the dock it sailed from than is the Salma. How far is the Terner from the dock?

a. 8km

b. 15. km

c. 17 km

I know this sonds crazy but I need if for a scene in a play. The people are restoring an old sailing yacht outside and a storm comes up. Nobody wants to quit working so they grab things and bring them into the banquet room of the mansion. The effect should be shocking as in Oh my god you can’t bring THAT into the dining room. A whole mast would probably be to big but other than that, anything that can be worked on separate from the boat would be good. Maybe part of the engine. Maybe something that needs to be sanded or painted. Suggestions?
Gad. Where’s Nyctugcapt or Scienceteacher when I need them?

akina, if you’re a spammer, you’re doing the world no good… if you aren’t, your answer wasn’t quite helpful, but thanks for trying.

“I had a dream about sailing in a yacht with my aunt who died some years ago. In the dream she announced that she had purchased a yacht with someone. Then I asked her the name of it and I cant remember the name. My aunt was in no position to buy a yacht when she was alive so I was shocked but felt comfortable. What does this all mean?”

Looking to buy a sailing yacht, nothing too big. Just for messing about in at the weekend. Length about 11-14 meters. Before doing that though I want to see if I like sailing, and if I can do it. So want to go to Sailing School in Asia, Singapore.
