Those discs won't stop a rat. I put something like this over my cable TV line, it spun freely. Watched a rat hop right onto it - balanced, then down the other side. There's also several squirrels vs bird feeder videos that attempt this trick. They might get dumped once, maybe twice, but if they come back they'll have it figured.

[@musoangelo]

Many years ago when I attended the California Maritime Academy, I remember a boats class where the instructor was covering rat guards on tie up lines and when he'd finished, he commented that he didn't see any reason that the rats wouldn't use the gangway like everybody else. Also on the AIS system, if your intent was on harming something, it'd be a handy tool to know where everyone else was in terms of getting in and getting out without risking too much.

[@eSysmanSuperYachts]

On yachts the gangways don’t make contact with the floor so it’s not so easy for them. Also they have stairs below the gangway.

[@shaynelhta]

Having built my own rat stopping system to keep them off powerlines and climbing onto the house, these are not a very good design alone. They can and will eventually learn to jump over them in time. You actually need to add a round cone shape which is too slippery to grip. Both is best though.

[@CinematographyLischka]

Appreciating the room height on this yacht! Many overlook the value of vertical space, but even in constrained environments like city apartments, a touch more ceiling height can transform the feel of a space. It's not just about square footage; it's about the volume and openness.

Of course keeping details private - they allowed families of the workers to check out the yacht once it was finished so their families would have a better idea what work is done. I am relatively sure it was the Joy where we had that opportunity.

I just stumbled onto this channel by chance. We have started looking for our 1st ocean boat. We decided to buy something that can take us anywhere we might point her. Something we can spend long stretches of time at sea with no worries. So we're really excited and we've been trying to watch every video we can get our hands on about yachting. We enjoyed this video, I found it informative and your voice is so pleasant and easy on the brain. Loved it.

[@GTOGregory]

I've worked with the commercial GPS navigation systems on the order of the AIS. We would plug in approximate locations if there's a problem with GPS signals. Most systems need a fairly accurate date/time group to establish the connection. Moreover, you need a connection from several satellites for an accurate position. But, yes, you can manually alter your location.

[@hike2]

The boats location is hidden due to a stalker with a camera filming everything 😂👍🏻

Its very interesting the systems and specs you bring up on these vessels. Id like to know if these pleasure yachts have ice rated hulls? Also id like to know how they perform in heavy seas.

Oh, a video I hadn't watched! When I read "unwanted guests" I thought it was about the two-legged kind 🙂

[@erepsekahs]

I am familiar with our 42' Beneteau sailing boat which many people have admired on both sides of the Atlantic. I have to say that the size of these privately owned motor yachts tends to humble, not only me, but many others. These are of truly an incredible size and replete with extraordinary luxury right down to the private escorts....which I am familiar with but have never used personally. Then again, I am not an arms manufacturer/dealer, an international banking executive familiar with how to move money around the world in such a way that it actually disappears etc. etc. although I have friends who know how to do it and, in fact, do do it .....or a successful politician.

[@patrickabas1112]

a bit silly to have rat guards on the front and none on the rear. The rats don't mind if its a power cable or a moring rope :-)

Nirvanan is a lovely boat. And Joy is OK too. But the the one with the big A on its rear is well named!!!

[@aggonzalezdc]

speaking of unwanted guests, Ive always wondered about how they deal with random people getting on a boat, either to steal things, or maybe as paparazzi trying to get some pics of someone famous in their underwear. I know that marinas have policies that only certain people can be on the pier itself, but often, theres just like a railing separating the two. Getting in would be very easy. Do it at night, hop the railing while no one is looking, and hop right up that ramp onto the boat. So what do they do to prevent and/or deal with situations like that?

[@carolempluckrose4188]

If they are a Russian oligarch, probably shoot you!🤕

Ah, the good ol' fouled propeller. Had that happen 3 times so far underway, twice were lines and the other a sheet of construction plastic and the fun one was at midnight. Good thing the boat had a diver onboard, fortunately for me, the diver, each time the fouling was easy to remove. and didn't get into any seals. Oddly, I don't see many rope cutters installed, maybe I am around the wrong boat (s/owners).

With regards to Joy..... the difference in headroom, to other yachts, would that improve or hinder, stability? The more headroom, free airway?

[@renegubbels4913]

Hi, i use also IAS on our yacht ,because we have a lot of rivers with locks and bridges in the Netherlands, so the bridhe ord lock keeper see you on screen and the opening of the bridges or locks are more faster and you can see further the ships coming.

[@ArtOnSuperyachts]

very informative

[@patricklindahl868]

Why no rat stoppers aft? AIS is often shut off when entering a harbor, just not to reveal the exact location in the harbor. Technically you can alter your position but normally it's difficult. The position shown is the last known position för Find Ship 18 hours ago. If you look at an online plotter that listen to live AIS signals, you won't see her.

[@761jared]

Why are there no rat guards on the shore power lines ? Seems almost silly to protect from boarding via the ropes but not other access points too.

Could you explain how the taxes work for where the Yachts are registered? You mentioned about it when that Yacht was registered in London. And what sort of $$ are involved.

[@redwolfexr]

Its not just taxes, there are all SORTS of laws that can be inconvenient. US registry in particular can be restrictive. (US Crew, US Captain, USCG safety mandates which are just different than others) They also want US built, but they grant exceptions for that all the time. Imagine needing a new deckhand or cook on a US flagged ship in the Pacific and having to fly an American one in. (you can have a small number of foreign crew, but they have to have right to work in the US)

[@johnjohn-cs9eu]

@@redwolfexr All this will change of course due to the turmoil *pirate Captain Covid* is causing in the World

@@johnjohn-cs9eu It has nothing to do with covid. Those laws are a PITA if you aren't mostly sticking to US waters and maybe the Caribbean.

[@echtogammut]

As Daniel mentions there is a lot more to cost than just sales and registration costs. If you are chartering, you also have to consider VAT rates from the country of register. There is a level of added security if you are a US flagged ship as the US Navy and Coast Guard will sail to your aid, plus you also have access to a number of US territorial Islands that non-US flagged vessels have to jump through hoops to get to. I would argue that is more of something a smaller owner operated/handed yacht would be concerned with than yachts covered on this channel.

I watch my favorite US Navy Torpedo Retrieve move from Key Port Washington to BC Nanoose Bay test Range. I have gone to meany open house days at this test base. All the great vessel are open to public. So it's not a big security risk watching these Naval vessel move around. I just love watching them,. And I see them turn off there AIS. Myself I'm like you watching where your work space moves. On a side note, saw a serplus Navy underwater sonar tracking vessel, very large that was up for sale. The guy doing walk through was saying how easy it would be to convert. To private world cruise vessel. Being it stayed out at Sea for 6months. It had fuel enough to go around the world. It had a Hospital space ( separate compartment) it had huge A frame rear boom. Small crane with ungodly lift capabilities. It had ROV spot on back deck. Just my DREAM vessel. With the issue of fuel now with these super private vessels. That surplus Navy vessel would not be looking for fuel barge bunkering, in my Humble opinion. My gosh these Millionaires could just use it as a refueled for there super size vessels.

Hi there, as a deck officer or a captain, you should know that AIS signal is not transmitted by wifi, but by VHF. So the position of a vessel on Vesselfinder or Marine traffic is an old signal that is updated only from time to time. ITo my knowledge, a ship is not able to change its position on the receiver of another VHF received station or chartplotter by itself. A SAR-vessel or even every other ship shall NEVER use a ships position on WIFI such as Vesselfinder or Marinetraffic.
