Yacht Charters New England: The status of the yacht charters new england ensign (13 stars in a circle around an anchor on a blue field) is not spelled out clearly, but since the law specifically covers only the flag of the United States, the assumption has been made that the yacht charters new england ensign may be dipped.
The following regulations are taken from that portion of the New York yacht charters new england Club code entitled yacht charters new england Routine. These deal with salutes, boats (meaning tenders and dinghies), and general courtesies. Other sections of the code, not given here, relate primarily to the display of flags, signaling, and lights.See Also Trawler Yachts:Cruising Club of America, P.O. Box 4024, Boston, MA 02101-4024; www.cruisingclub.org. CCA uses the collective knowledge and experience of its members to influence "the adventurous use of the sea" through its efforts to improve seamanship, the design of seaworthy trawler yachts, safe yachting procedures, and environmental awareness.
The routines of other yacht clubs may be considerably less formal and detailed than those that follow, but whatever routines are used, they are likely to have been derived from the procedures of the New York Yacht Club.
• Salutes. All salutes shall be made by dipping the yacht ensign once, lowering the ensign to the dip, and hoisting it when the salute is returned. All salutes shall be returned. Whistles shall never be used in saluting.
Vessels of the United States and foreign navies shall be saluted.
When a flag officer of the club comes to anchor, he shall be saluted by all trawler yachts present, except where there is a senior flag officer present.
When a yacht comes to anchor where a flag officer is present, such officer shall be saluted. A junior flag officer anchoring in the presence of a senior shall salute.
trawler yachts passing shall salute, the junior saluting first.
All salutes shall be answered in kind.
A yacht acting as race committee Boat should neither salute nor be saluted while displaying the committee flag.
• Boats. Upon entering and leaving boats, deference is shown seniors by juniors' entering first and leaving last.
When aboard boats, flag officers display their flags, captains (owners) their private signals, and members (non-owners) the club burgee. When on duty, the fleet captain and race committee display their distinctive flags. The flag of the senior officer aboard takes precedence. A flag officer aboard a Boat not displaying his distinc-
v y
tive flag should be considered as present in an unofficial capacity. When two boats are approaching the same gangway or landing stage, flag officers shall have the right-of-way in order of seniority.
On The Other Hand See Luxury Yachts For Sale:Decor Trends Lean Toward luxury yachts for sale
At $5,800 a set, you probably won't be able to afford the ultimate luxury yachts for sale of the year - cashmere sheets. Donald Trump will have them. You won't. But that won't stop you from wanting them. Your hunger for luxury yachts for sale will continue to shape the way you shop and decorate in 2006. "It's become embedded in the culture that everyone is entitled to a little bit of luxury yachts for sale," says Candace Corlett, principal consultant at WSL Strategic Retail in New York. As a result, you can expect to see more and more luxurious-looking or designer-like items available for sale, especially at big-box stores. But oh, the guilt. In 2005, the world has been scoured by killer waves, hurricanes, earthquakes and war.
In addition to commercial use of the skins, there was formerly a busy trade in the sale of baby alligators for so-called pets for children. The ruthless capture and sale of these small creatures naturally reduced the number of adults to the point where they were approaching extinction. It became necessary to protect them by law, and no more of the native young of the United States species can now be sold commercially. However, so-called baby alligators are still sold, especially in Florida, but they are baby caimans, which are a species of crocodile native to South America that are imported for sale here.
