The Grand Banks EU54

If I ever decide to get a Cabin Cruiser, it would pick the Grand Banks EU54. It has absolutely everything I would need to cruise Singapore waters and the popular destinations of Tioman, Aur, Rawa, Batam & Bintan and all the way to Penang, Langkawi & Phuket. This trawler is the perfect boat if time is not the essence.

Live the Dream to Build the Dream

Waterfront living is now a reality in Singapore. I love the idea of waking up to the sound of waves lapping at my front moorings. Taking the boat out anytime I feel like it and inhailing the fresh sea breeze every evening right at my doorstep. It is indeed a dream come true for Singaporeans with a passion for this lifestyle. Join me as I journey into the last frontier, the sea and explore the wonders of nature within the reach of the Singapore Seafarer. So cast off all lines mate and sail forth yonder...

Mad about Fishing

I have always harboured the notion that there are no fish in Singapore. This perception changed the day I met up with Ahmad from Ponggol Marina and Jiang from Keppel. Therse gurus of fishing, work as charter boat captains and are testimony to the wide variety of fish found in our waters. Their secret goes beyong just fishing spots. They say tell me the key factor is water condition, tidal current and the exact positioning at the fishing spot. I have also met other local charter boat captains, who time & again come back with ice-boxes full of respectable table-size fish. The question is how come these guys have all the luck and we only get to watch videos of their catches. Well, I have decided to go on a second mission to uncover the secrets of these gurus. So stay tuned and watch out for the reports, coming your way soon....

Lagoon Power 44

The Cat has come a long way. In the early years of development, the modest catamaran faced many bad comments, from noisy, incapable of handling big seas, to unseaworthy construction. Times have changed, technologies have kept paced with imagination. The catamaran has evolved into a worthy passage maker, capable of steaming at an economical 9 knots, and increasing to 20+ knots when the need arises. Today, I can no longer see any disadvantages of a Cat. The advantages are obvious, fuel economy, speed, space and stability at anchor. I just might get one of these someday soon.
