Money Talks presents: Yachting, great sport of all extreme sports!!!

What do we know about yachting, first of all of sailing?

“Whilst sailing’s invention is prehistoric, racing sailing boats is believed to have started in the Netherlands some time in the 17th century, whence it soon made its way to England where custom-built racing “yachts” began to emerge. In 1851, a challenge to an American yacht racing club in New York led to the beginning of the America;s Cup, a regatta won by the New York Yacht Club until 1983, when they finally lost to Australia II.. Meanwhile, yacht racing continued to evolve, with the development of recognised classes of racing yachts, from small dinghies up to huge maxi yachts.

These days, yacht and dinghy racings are common participant sports around the developed world, particularly where favourable wind conditions and access to reasonably sized bodies of water are available. Most yachting is conducted in salt water, but smaller craft can be – and are – raced on lakes and even large rivers.

Whilst there are many different types of racing vessels, they can generally be separated into the larger yachts, which are larger and contain facilities for extended voyages, and smaller harbour racing craft such as dinghies and skiffs.

Larger yachts are also raced on harbours, but the most prestigious yacht races are point-to-point long distance races on the open ocean. Bad weather makes such races a considerable test of equipment and willpower just to finish, and from time to time boats and sailors are lost at sea. The longest such events are “round-the-world” races which can take months to complete, but better-known are events such as the Fastnet race in the United Kingdom and the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race along the east coast of Australia. As well as a first-past-the-post trophy (called “line honours”), boats may race under a handicap system that adjusts finishing times for the relative speeds of the boats’ design, theoretically offering each entrant an equal chance.

Cruising involves traveling on a boat. It could be a trip to the other side of the bay or across the oceans to the islands of the South Pacific. Safe cruising across long distances requires a degree of self sufficiency and a wide range of skills beyond handling the boat.

So summarizing, yachting is quit a snobbiest kind of sport activities but gathering more attention from the people from day to day.

Let’s practice yachting all world wide!
