Hello Sailors
'This week I was approached by a sailor whose brief was clear, precise and explicit. He had been hunting for a boat for some time but without success. A busy gentleman (and a pleasure to deal with), he contacted me asking for assistance.
In fine tuning his requirements I was reminded of our exact brief when we set up Yachtfinders Global 30 years ago. 'To search and find a boat globally for any buyer anywhere, and to only sell good quality boats.' And to this day we still continue to assist those who not only wish to sell their boat - but those who want to find the right boat - either locally or internationally!'

La Jument is a lighthouse located in the northwestern part of France on the coastline of Brittany. While the lighthouse no longer has a keeper, people are still required to go to the top of the lighthouse to perform maintenance. During a storm, the task is legitimately horrifying. The workers travel about 20' up in the air while other men on the boat belay them as they try to properly position themselves to land on the deck. | |

It's often considered a sign of tiredness and boredom, not to mention rudeness. Now researchers have found a big yawn is a sign of a larger brain. A study of animals from mice to elephants has linked bigger brains with lengthier yawns. The find could explain why humans have the longest yawns in the animal kingdom. | |
