Sailing Race - Fouling the Prop Sailors sometimes must use their boat's engine. A mishap known as "fouling the prop" proves that power and sailing don't mix all the time. Getting a rope tangled up in the propeller is a drag; when it happens on a boat with an inboard engine, the engine stalls and the propeller gets stuck, unable to turn. Next thing you know, someone (probably you) has to jump in the water (probably cold) and untangle the prop. Usually the culprit is a halyard or sheet (or dock line or tow line) from your boat.Preventing a fouled prop is simple. Keep your lines out of the water, and always look around the boat before turning on the engine.Unfortunately, people aren't as vigilant as they should be, so here's how to deal with tangled ropes on an inboard engine propeller. (If you have an outboard, what are you waiting for? Pull it up and unwrap the rope!)1. Turn off the engine immediately (it may have already stalled out).2. Find the transgressing rope and gently pull it with the shift in neutral. Pull harder and pray, because if the rope doesn't release, you're swimming.3. Consider whether you really need the engine. If you don't really need the engine,...more

But neither of us has ever had to activate an EPIRB or abandon ship into a life raft....more
Begin your sailing holiday at the Dominican Republic The Caribbean is one of the most popular exotic holiday destinations. The Dominican Republic was the most popular Caribbean island in 2009, with almost 4 million visitors in 2009. Located on the island of Hispaniola, it's one of two Caribbean islands that is shared by two countries - the western third of the island is occupied by Haiti. In the 1490's the Dominican Republic became the site of the first permanent European settlement in the Americas, and Spain's first capital in the New World. The Dominican Republic has the second largest economy in the Caribbean, dominated by the services industry despite its reputation for sugar production. It's tourism that fuels the country's economic growth, representing an estimated one in every seven jobs. Tourists are often attracted to the country because of its year-round golf course, the warm climate and great biological diversity. The Caribbean is home to around 9% of the world's coral reefs, which cover about 20,000 square miles. One of the best ways to explore the Caribbean is from the beautiful blue seas, and perhaps the most luxurious way to do so is with a yacht...more
