TheBoaters.TV EP 64: First up today - SeaFair, a colossal 228-ft, three level, 3,200 ton, superyacht has successfully begun the first ever nautical fine art tour in history. Now enroute to Miami, SeaFair is expected to arrive just in time for Art Basel Miami in late November. To see the full schedule of ports during SeaFair's 44-week voyage, visit www.ExpoShips.com.
Next up: Before John Harrison invented the marine chronometer, navigation of merchant shipping boats and navy ships to far away ports were estimations at best. Although electrical navigational systems have since made the chronometer all but obsolete, Harrison’s chronometer is still a requirement upon most vessels today.
Finally - Hold on to Your Hats: A Change to the End of TheBoaters.TV Episodes! For the next few weeks, at the completion of our rolling credits, as opposed to a nautical word or phrase of the day, Julie will be presenting her "TheBoaters.com SeaLebrity Profile Pick of the Day." Today’s winner is Captain Bruce Elmore's profile for "MHYZHEN," a 31-foot aluminum 1964 Marinette Express that he is currently reconstructing.
