We know and love how big they are, but what are they like to drive? Suggested ReadingWhile we were discussing cars that everyone should be forced to drive , Liberte for le Jetstar! chimed in with a description of what it's like to drive his (surprise) Oldsmobile Jetstar 88. I've been driving a 1964 Oldsmobile 88 for 5 years now as a daily driver. Here's what I've learned: Plan ahead when you're braking. Four-wheel drums will stop you relatively quickly...once. After that, it's fade-o-rama. The steering is indeed nautical, but with over-assisted power steering and a surprisingly decent turning radius, low-speed maneuvering isn't too hard. I've done three-point turns on two-lane roads. Reverse is your friend. I usually back into parking spots; it's easier to get in and waaaaaaaaaaaaaay easier to pull out. J-turns are extremely useful, not just for scaring your passengers and bystanders, but for turning around quickly. Don't be afraid of potholes and curbs. With tall tires, a tough-ass suspension with massive amounts of travel, and cushy springs, driving over deep ruts and speed bumps is almost fun. Keep your foot in it if you get into mud/sand. Drive on the interstate a lot. On inner-city expressways, you can easily clip along at 90 and get a feel for what these cars are really meant to do. We all hear about the 30 dead hooker-sized trunks, but there's truth in the jokes. Especially in an older car with no frilly carpeting, it's really like having a little watertight truck bed. Just vacuum out the fur needles and oil every once in a while. You can make it fast pretty easily. Through technique alone, I was able to bring my 1/4 mile time down from 21.4 to 17.685. That's with a 5.7 liter engine, two-barrel carburetor, a two-speed transmission, an open 3.08 differential, and a 4,200 lb. car. In short, forget about gas mileage and buy one, especially anything from 1961-1967. You won't regret it. Related ContentHave you driven a truly massive American sedan? An equally-huge Russian sedan, perhaps? What tips do you have for driving one of these old beasts?

This House is For You.![a yacht on land Picture of Sarah Bretz, Contributor](https://cruiseradio.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/cropped-IMG_0691-200x200.jpg) Sarah Bretz, ContributorThis is a bit of a fun one. We happened upon a post on Facebook about this house that’s for sale, and we couldn’t resist writing it up to share the glory with our readers. In the sleepy little lakeside city of Au Gres, Michigan lies a house fit for a wanna-be sailor that doesn’t want to go quite as far as to buy an actual houseboat. At first glance, you might think that an actual boat washed up on shore and somehow remained in one piece throughout the ordeal. ![a yacht on land zillow boat house](https://cruiseradio.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-3-scaled.jpg) But no, this residence overlooking Lake Huron and the Saginaw Bay is just a house… boat. Or a boat house? The single-family home’s Zillow listing says that it is 2,633 square feet and features two and a half bathrooms and five bedrooms; plenty of space for a large family or a small family who wants to share their piece of lakeside paradise with friends and family. ![a yacht on land zillow boat house lake huron](https://cruiseradio.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/cc1bc6ce1aab5e10f4bec96b8bb3178b-uncropped_scaled_within_1536_1152.jpg) It was built in 1936, but many updates have been made in the last decade. I quote from the listing “There have been many updates in the past 10 years. including the entire roof, Forward and aft decks and the upper deck.” How fun is this?! Even the real estate listing speaks of this house in nautical terms. Because how else would you explain exactly what those areas are, anyway? It’s not like this is a standard rectangular abode. ![a yacht on land zillow boat house lake huron](https://cruiseradio.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/c3cd505320d22b42b15457b378bd411c-uncropped_scaled_within_1536_1152.jpg) The listing overview continues: “The Captain’s Quarters (Master Suite) is up with it’s own 3 pc. Head. The morning view of the Sunrise is Beautiful. There’s a wall of glass overlooking Lake Huron and the Saginaw Bay. What a great way to start your day… The large Living Room overlooks the Bow of the Yacht and has a huge Wood Burning Fireplace.” ![a yacht on land zillow boat house lake huron](https://cruiseradio.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Untitled-design-4-scaled.jpg) We are awfully curious about who built this house, and who has owned it since. Were they actual sailors who couldn’t get enough of the nautical life? Did they come from a landlocked place and always dreamed of living on a boat, but didn’t want the inconveniences that a houseboat brings? Or maybe they were just enthusiasts about the water and everything that floats on it (sort of like the humble author of this article!). The house was listed on August 2, 2021 for $750,000.

New on YahooYahoo FinancePrivate jets and yachts land in nantucket for jefferies takeover. (Bloomberg) -- The superyacht Night Howl, all 164 lustrous feet of it, pulled into Nantucket harbor. Most Read from Bloomberg Russia Is Storing Up a Crime Wave When Its War on Ukraine Ends CDK Hackers Want Millions in Ransom to End Car Dealership Outage Dubai Real Estate’s Resilience May Signal End of Boom-Bust Cycle Global Investors Turn Cautious on Once Favorite Japanese Stocks Wall Street’s Smart-Trade Brigade Thrashed Again on Stock Boom The new owner of this floating palace, Rich Handler, wasn’t aboard. He’d taken a faster route, via air, for what amounted to a brief, not-so-hostile takeover of a place that’s a summer playground for the ultra-wealthy. Along the cobblestones of Nantucket Town, the whaling port immortalized in Moby Dick, Handler and his team from Jefferies Financial Group Inc., were hoping to land a catch of their own. For two days, they courted top executives from Walmart, Macy’s, Hilton and consumer companies weighing going public. Money managers from firms including Wellington Capital Management, Fidelity Investments and T. Rowe Price Group grilled CEOs and CFOs about their margins and back-to-school projections in a Wall Street blowout like no other. Media moguls have Sun Valley, Idaho. Central bankers have Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Here on Nantucket, about 30 miles (48 kilometers) off the coast of Massachusetts, consumer giants and their investors return like bluefish for an annual invite-only conference. In a place where new money has remade old ways, at times to the consternation of Nantucketers, this year’s gathering added one more exclamation point to the wealth percolating through this elbow of sand in the Atlantic. Navy blue doormats emblazoned with Jefferies greeted guests at the waterside White Elephant, the grey-shingled grand dame of hotels. Outside, three circus-like white tents were planted on the lawn overlooking the harbor for the Wall Street-equivalent of speed-dating with executives who might be looking for Jefferies services. Not that a room — or dinner reservation — could be found just about anywhere downtown without planning in advance. One evening Handler personally hit 15 different restaurants where his bankers and their guests were rubbing elbows, Nantucket-style, over oysters, shrimp, and lobster rolls. Others gathered around food trucks, sipping IPAs at Cisco Brewers. This was the 14th time Jefferies has hosted the conference since 2010, though two were held virtually during the pandemic. Handler was blunt about the allure of Nantucket. “People are trapped here,” he joked between meetings at the hotel. “Once you’re here, you’re captive and you’re bonding.” The Jefferies conference defies categorization: it’s a boondoggle but also a family affair where children frolic on the beach at the closing lobster bake. It’s a pain to get to relative to the more ubiquitous conference destinations in cities such as New York and Las Vegas, but demand is high — the bank had to turn people away for the first time this year. In Nantucket Harbor, the Night Howl, an homage to Handler’s wife’s contribution to the Wolf Conservation Center, was fresh off its 12-hour journey from Manhattan. Handler stayed on the boat, and would have traveled by water from New York if it weren’t for prior work commitments that caused him to fly. It was docked next to Tireless, a boat that belongs to a tire-company executive who was also in town for the Jefferies event. Handler’s was the site of a cocktail party for a group of private companies mulling public offerings. In one of the key features of the week: lawyers from Latham & Watkins, Jefferies bankers and traders and the firm’s ESG advisers hosted an IPO boot camp. Prior participants include Mediterranean fast-casual chain Cava Group Inc. and Wingstop Inc., said Michael Bauer, a managing director in Jefferies’ equity capital markets group. Jefferies had a hand in both of their public listings. Marc Jaffe, a Latham & Watkins’ partner, said on average, he’s gotten at least one deal every year from the conference. This will be his seventh time attending. Unlike many investment bank conferences, this one doesn’t offer fireside chats or focus on formal presentations. The goal is to foster quick, candid conversations — between companies and would-be buyers and investors. During a lunch break, an investor from Wellington chatted with a counterpart at Ashler Capital about margin outlooks and the impact of new apparel launches from one retail company in attendance. At a dinner in town, executives from dining and food companies compared notes on successes and challenges. The conference has a long and colorful history. It traces its roots back to the 1980s when a salesperson who had a house in Nantucket convinced his firm, which ultimately became Wachovia Corp., to host an event catering to wealthy investors who also had residences on the island. When the US government forced the sale of Wachovia in 2008 to prevent the bank’s collapse, the rights to the conference (along with the rest of the company) ended up with Wells Fargo & Co. The financial crisis wasn’t a great time to inherit a Nantucket conference and so the event would have been yet another casualty of that period of banking turmoil but for the efforts of Jim Walsh, now vice chairman of Jefferies. Walsh, who joined the bank in 2007 from Wachovia, convinced his new employer to take over the conference and a fresh era began — for Jefferies and for Nantucket. “The CEOs feel the conversations are more engaging and relaxed because of the backdrop of being by the water,” Walsh said. The Wachovia conference had a rowdier reputation. Back then, the financiers seemed to take over the island, and if you didn’t see them, you could certainly hear the fireworks they set off from Jetties Beach. The Jefferies conference-goers these days stay relatively under the radar. Nantucket doesn’t typically host large, national conferences “for obvious reasons,” said Peter Burke, executive director of the Nantucket Island Chamber of Commerce. “Overall hotel space and our remote location both create logistical challenges.” But tourism hasn’t yet reached the peak of July or August, so local vendors have more capacity for group events, he explained. For the send-off dinner, Jefferies offers a family-style clam-bake at the popular beach-side restaurant Sandbar. This year, a full-size circus tent and rows of tables accommodated more than 600 attendees and their families. Guests cracked claws and dipped lobster in butter, wearing “Jefferies Nantucket 2024” bibs. A smaller adjacent tent was filled with beach toys and a color-your-own clam shell station for kids. But the true finale, for those able to continue, is a late-night party at the Chicken Box. Years ago, Handler felt something was missing: pizza. So he arranged a last-minute delivery. Now, the greasy snack is a staple at the music venue. Jefferies plans ahead with a request for 40 pepperoni and cheese pies from Sophie T’s Pizza directly across the street. As for the main venue, Jefferies is already preparing for next year to make sure the White Elephant is again available in 2025.

How Should I Prepare My Boat for Land Transport?Please refer to this page for detailed guidance on How to Prepare a Yacht for Transport by truck. What Is The Process of Transporting a Yacht by Land?Pre-yacht transport. First, we will discuss the details of your transport. The key things that we will need to know are: the measurements of your boat, make and model, timeframe & desired route. Measuring your boat accurately is vital for us to know if it can or can’t be transported by land legally along your required route. If your yacht is oversized, or will need to travel through cities with many narrow roads or low bridges, we will need to research the transport route & requirements by obtaining permits & perhaps pole cars or police escorts in your locale if they are legally required. Next, we will send you a quote and then a digital contract once we have confirmed the logistics and timeframe with the driver. Since equipment and drivers are in high demand, we require a 50% deposit to reserve your pick-up-date range on our schedule. Once the contract is signed and we have received the deposit, we will reach out to your marina to introduce ourselves and begin the coordinated process to ensure your boat is ready for transport on pick-up day. During Yacht TransportOn pick-up day your boat will be loaded and strapped down to the trailer at the marina (or other pick-up location). The loading process typically takes a couple of hours. The driver would be happy to take a picture of your loaded boat at the marina and send it to you. The driver will provide frequent updates on progress and the condition of the boat throughout the transport. Once we arrive at your destination, the marina will unload your yacht from the trailer & the process is complete! Enjoy your boat in its new destination. How Much Does Boat Transport by Truck Cost?In general , price for yacht trucking is dependent on these two factors: miles from origin to destination and the size and weight of the boat being transported. Additionally, oversized loads (especially being transported through multiple countries or states) become more costly due to the need for permits & pilot cars. Typically, if you can provide us with the accurate measurements of your yacht, your desired route & timeframe, then we can provide you with a verbal estimate of cost over the phone on our first call. If you submit a quote for yacht transport by land via our form, we will call or e-mail you a quote promptly. ![a yacht on land Oversize Boat Transport Yacht Trucking](https://www.brooksyachttransport.com/wp-content/uploads/Oversize-Boat-Transport-Yacht-Trucking-scaled.jpg) Yacht Transport in North AmericaIf you are located within the United States or Canada, we can easily schedule Yacht Transport by truck to any destination.

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission. Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez are taking Greece by land, sea and air. An isle spy tells Page Six that the power couple has been seen on Mykonos, where helicopter pilot Sánchez was spotted taking a whirly-bird for a spin off the duo’s boat, which is filled with “toys,” y’know, like choppers. Said the fellow traveler: “Jeff was seen coming from the city center in Chora ” — as the tony town is called by locals and in-the-know visitors — “and getting on and off his helicopter onto his smaller support boat.” ![a yacht on land Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez](https://pagesix.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/06/american-businessman-jeff-bezos-fiancee-83995027.jpg?w=543) The couple was also photographed strolling through the streets of Mykonos hand-in-hand. The source further said that, “Lauren has been seen flying a helicopter on and off their support boat, where they keep all their toys . . . helicopters, speed boats and other water toys.” The source also told us that, “Jeff’s keeping the super big boat they live on, on the other side of the island where there is less wind.” ![a yacht on land Jeff Bezos, Lauren Sanchez](https://pagesix.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2024/06/american-businessman-jeff-bezos-fiancee-83994803.jpg) The source was referring to the couple’s famous $500 million superyacht , Koru, which they debuted last summer. Building of the mammoth vessel for the Amazon tycoon began in 2018. Bezos also reportedly owns a “smaller” $75 million yacht, Abeona, which shadows his bigger boat . (One boat blog explained the concept: “In car terms, this is basically the same as buying a Porsche so you can drive to the garage where your Bugatti is parked.”) The little ol’ support boat can accommodate 45, including 20 crew.

Also on Mykonos as the summer heats up , we hear, is billionaire Jets owner Woody Johnson, who was spotted at fancy beach club Scorpios, after taking a tender from his own yacht. Bezos and Sánchez have also been seen in Greece dining on the island of Hydra with Bezos’ son Preston. Share this article:- Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)

The Allure of Yacht Living. The concept of yacht living taps into a deep-seated desire for freedom, an intimate connection with nature, and a sense of belonging within a unique community.
