Princess Yachts' Y95: A Flagship Flybridge

The Future Is Now

Wally has always been a disrupter in the yacht world. For more than 30 years, its team has taken what came before, stripped away everything but function, and rethought just about every other aspect.

The 23-knot wallywhy150 expands the builder's why series and pushes boundaries with innovative interior and exterior design. It's a two-and-a-half-deck design with around 150 gross tons-a spec we don't often see with yachts this length, but, again, Wally likes to do things differently.

The 23-knot Princess Yachts Y95 leads the British boatbuilder's four-model Y Class open-flybridge series.

Top Prop Fixes

It may be true that a spinning boat propeller will push a boat forward, but the condition of that propeller will determine how fast the boat moves and how much vibration you feel as it does so. Even minor dings or bends in a propeller's blades can affect efficiency.

If you discover damage to your boat's prop, what comes next? Here are five ways to get a dinged, dented or damaged boat propeller back to new condition.

Summer Charter Options

Several charter companies have recently welcomed new yachts into their charter fleets, with inquiries now being accepted for summer yacht charter bookings in the Bahamas and Mediterranean.

First up is Memento Vivere, a 130-foot Westport that RJC Yachts just welcomed to its charter fleet in the Bahamas. Built in 2005, Memento Vivere (formerly known as No Bad Ideas) was most recently refitted this year. The yacht accommodates 10 guests in five staterooms, and it's decked out for watersports fun with a 40-foot Intrepid tender, a 14-foot AB Inflatables jet tender, a pair of Sea-Doos, a trio of Seabobs, an eFoil, an inflatable slide, paddleboards, tow toys, inflatable loungers, and snorkeling and fishing gear (including deep-sea fishing rods).

Back to Business

Hurricane Ian was a monster when it struck Southwest Florida in September 2022: Category 5, winds up to 162 mph and damage that topped $100 billion.

The good news for boaters is that the waterways are once again clear, with marinas and services coming back online for transient cruisers. Some spots are fully reopened, while others are partially back in business. Overall, Southwest Florida is eager to welcome yachtsmen once again.
