ENGLISH: about "A"

Yes, you read that name right: This debut is simply named A. For the better part of this year, online forums, blogs, and even general news sites have been burning up with postings relating to this launch. When the top-secret project, alternately code-named Sigma and then SF99, emerged from her build shed back in January and the first photos of her became public, people went nuts. While many found her reverse bow striking and some described her overall design as daring, others likened her to a submarine and just couldn't warm up to her unusual, warship-like styling. The Wall Street Journal's "Wealth" columnist and blogger even dubbed

 her the ugliest yacht in the world. As to who the owner is, most people assumed from the start that it was 41-year-old Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich—though other interesting theories included Google cofounder Sergey Brin. The true owner: 36-year-old Andrey Melnichenko, another Russian billionaire who's met with great success in banking and energy companies.

 FAST FACTS

Despite the fact that A was one of the most tightly guarded secrets in megayacht construction, "information" about her abounds on the Internet—unfortunately most either wrong or out of date. Her length has been pronounced as anywhere from 118 to 130 meters. In reality she started at 118 meters and, contrary to most projects, which balloon during the design stage, ended up at 119 meters. Depending on the Web site, the owner was proclaimed to be an American, a Brit, and even a Saudi. But in an interview a few months ago with the German weekly Die Zeit, the yacht's designer, Philippe Starck, confirmed he was Russian and

 in his 30s. While some mega-watchers immediately assumed that meant Roman Abramovich, probably because he already owns a couple of entries on "The Power & Motoryacht 100," we knew it couldn't be him, since Abramovich is in his 40s. Starck's admission lent further support to the rumors that Andrey Melnichenko was the owner—which was finally confirmed by both The Yacht Report (a superyacht trade magazine) and information on Blohm + Voss' own Web site.

Starck, who's no stranger to controversy, has designed everything from a toothbrush to a motorcycle and claims he imbued A with a hull "that wouldn't cause bow washes at 20 knots." He also gave her a look that is undeniably unique and has been described as everything from breathtaking to ghastly. It's also frequently compared to that of a submarine and the newest U.S. Navy destroyer. Indeed, if you Google "world's ugliest yacht," you'll get multiple entries for her project name Sigma, including one from thatsalovelybooger.blogspot.com that describes her looking like "the hat that girl from The Thompson Twins used to wear." Capt.

Wer eine richtige Luxus-Kreuzfahrt in familiärer Atmosphäre unternehmen will, mietet für sich und seine 70 Freunde diese Charter-Yacht – für 630.000 Euro pro Woche. Die „Turama“ lief 1990 auf der finnischen Rauma-Werft vom Stapel und gehört einem griechischen Charter-Unternehmen. Das 117 Meter lange Schiff bietet exklusiven Komfort in 42 Kabinen. Die 60-köpfige Crew sorgt nicht nur für eine sichere Fahrt, sondern auch für alle Annehmlichkeiten einer erholsamen Schiffsreise: Den Passagieren steht ein Swimmingpool mit zwei Whirlpools zur Verfügung. Ein Schönheitssalon sorgt für das gepflegte Äußere, ein Fitnesscenter mit Sauna für das körperliche Wohlbefinden. Gegen die Langeweile gibt es ein Kino und eine Diskothek.

 Die kleinen Passagiere können sich in einem Spielzimmer vergnügen. Wer trotzdem nicht ganz abschalten will, kann in der Internetlounge und im Businesscenter seinen Geschäften nachgehen – und notfalls mit dem Hubschrauber zu dringenden Terminen fliegen.

Form follows function – dieses  Schiff ist anders – kein geschliffenes und designtes Luxusobjekt, sondern harter Arbeiter im Smoking. 1957 als Eisbrecher gebaut, bietet es auch heute noch Solidität pur. Allerdings mit wesentlich mehr Komfort als damals. Von 2003 bis 2005 wurde es in Italien vom rumänischen Eisbrecher zum Luxus-Charterschiff. Preis pro Woche: 

85.000-90.000 Euro im Sommer; 85.000 im Winter. Dafür können 12 Gäste in 7 Luxuskabinen wohnen. Schon der Rundgang auf der Yacht ist eine Reise an sich: Jeder Raum ist individuell mit Objekten aus Europa, Afrika, Asien und Ozeanien eingerichtet.

PegasusIm neuen, freundlichen Outfit flog die „Pegasus“ ein. Bis vor kurzem noch mit dunkelblauem Rumpf und dunklen Fensterfronten versehen, präsentierte sie sich auf Ibiza – passend zur „weißen Insel“ – jetzt ganz in weiß. Im Winter 2007/2008 wurde sie auf Mallorca renoviert. Eigner ist – oder war der griechische Geschäftsmann Theodore P. Angelopoulos. Laut Gerüchten soll die Yacht 2007 für 58,5 Millionen Euro an einen Amerikaner verkauft worden sein.

Ursprünglich „nur“ 39,6 Meter lang, hat sich diese Charteryacht in diesem Jahr nicht nur einen neuen Namen gegönnt – sondern im Rahmen einer kompletten Renovierung auch drei Meter mehr Länge. Die ehemalige „Galant Lady“ misst jetzt 42,67 Meter und hat sich so Platz 370 der größten Privatyachten der Welt geholt. Vor Ibiza zeigte sie ihre neue Pracht pünktlich zum Feuerwerk am 8. August. 

Der Charterpreis liegt bei 120.000 Euro pro Woche – plus Nebenkosten wie Sprit.

The Chris Craft Commander Community is indebted to all of these people for their respective contributions to Chris Craft Commander boating, by their willingness to spend time, helping to create enthusiasm, and for being there on the front lines of sharing volumes of information !

MANY THANKS to everyone who has contributed to the information in these files. This forum will always be a work in progress. It’s a way

 to file away all of my Commander information for personal use, and it’s also a way to share it with anyone else who may be interested, or who may need the info (for their personal and non-commercial purposes), or may want to post, ask questions, etc. Because much of the information on the forum is not checked for accuracy, represents opinions in some cases from unknown sources, and may represent a safety or personal/financial liability if acted upon, the information in this forum and Master Index is offered with the very best of intentions, but it MUST be validated by the user before being implemented for utilization. If anyone sees a link in this index that does not work, of finds any inaccuracies, please post a note and I’ll try to fix it!

English: XIRINGUITO

We would like to introduce an especially beautiful and exceptional 

excursion destination!

 

Restaurant 

in the middle of the sea:

Xiringuito de la Costa

in St. Carles de la Rápita

Were talking about a typical Spanish CHIRINGUITO (English. = Beach bar) is also spelt Xiringuito. The spelling with an X comes from Catalonia. Unfortunately there are not as many Chiringuitos along our coastline as on, for example, the Balerean islands, where they can be found on every beach and in nearly all bays. This makes the Xiringuito here on the Costa Daurada much more authentic and original; a visit to the one here is an unforgettable experience with a slightly adventurous factor! It starts off with the fact that one cannot reach it in a car or by walking there because it lies right in the middle of the Ebro Delta bay which is situated in the south. It's right in the middle of the water and built on stilts. One could say "Pile Dwelling". It's just about opposite St. Carles de la Rapitá, from the restaurant it is possible to see the harbour. 

Locals and boat owner have known of the Xirinquito „La Costa" existence for over 50 years, because it's delightful to anchor in the protected bay which is surrounded by the Ebro Deltas nature preserve. Many families gather here in the summer in their motor boots and yachts and enjoy the peace and quite and let their souls „dangle", swim, or paddle with their dinghies to the nearly Xiringuito „La Costa" situated in the middie of the water for lunch.

One thing should be quite clear, one must book a table before hand, if a table has not been booked in advance then it is more or less impossible to get a table. Don't even try;  you will probably have to stay on your boat hungry with the lovely smell of Paella passing in front of your nose and your mouth drooling at the thought of having a plateful yourself.

Larger ships are not able to dock at the piers available because the water around the restaurant is between 0,30 m and 2,50 m deep. It's no problem if you don't have your own dinghy, the founder of the Xiringuito "La Costa", Alejandro Samver Torta, will come personally with his Taxi boat and pick you up, a phone call is enough!

 The location is sensational, and one is very impressed on arriving there. A large number of staff is available to take care of your needs; they are always very nice, patient and friendly, even when it is very full.

The Xiringuito "La Costa" is renowned for its marvellous Paella, therefore being not only popular amongst Spaniards. The rice for the Paella comes from where other than the rice producing region of the Ebro Delta. We have tested the Paella many times (enjoyed would be the better way of saying it) and it really does taste fantastic! Apart from fish and mussel specialities, the menu also offers various meat dishes and salads as well as homemade desserts.

One sits pretty rustically on wooden benches at huge tables, and it doesn't bother anyone if kids park themselves nearby together with their small buckets containing fish that they have caught. Just like all over Spain, it's not that quiet, this is compensated by the wonderful view of the Ebro Delta with all the yachts lying at anchor and the mountains in the background. It's such a nice atmosphere that during the first visit one already knows that it won't be long before the second visit is planned. Those who prefer cushioned seating should bring a cushion along with them from home, we don't miss them but one shouldn't compare it with a typical normal restaurant, because one also sits here in the obvious bathing clothing, which doesn't disturb anyone at all.

The founder of the Xiringuito, Alejandro Samver Torta , who opened the Restaurant 50 years ago can still be met there. Sometimes he is seen running around with tools making quick repairs, or as already mentioned, he is personally picking guests up from their ships with is Taxi Boat after being phoned up. Sometimes he personally welcomes guests who arrive in their own dinghies. The cooking and serving of guests is left to the younger staff, but now and again he visits a table and tells the odd story.

The new owner Andres Carbo Lavafons took over the Xiringuito a few years ago and enlarged, whereby the "work rooms" were not allowed to be enlarged. Working conditions during the summer heat are more than troublesome in the kitchen, one must have great admiration for the performances of the kitchen staff. The kitchen is always open and can always be viewed. It's amazing how everyone always manages to organise things and at the same time remain cheerful.

Via numerous bridge connections it is possible to get to various small wooden houses. The toilets are in one of them, in another the electricity generator which runs 24 hours a day, but cannot be heard in the restaurant. A further hut with an open shutter is "only" used for washing up the dishes etc.

For those who would like to take a quick Siesta there are sun-loungers around the corner. Via a further bridge with wooden steps one is able to get down to the water and paddle over (with the use of bathing shoes, recommended because of the Sea Urchins) to the nearby shore for a walk.

The Xiringuito opens each year in the middle of June and is open depending on the weather until the end of Oktober. The daily opening hours are from 10:00 hrs until 18:00 hrs and in August also on Saturday evenings from 21:00 hrs until 23:00 hrs.

Next year in 2007, it will be open in August during the evening on a daily basis. Because a table has to be booked anyway, it is better to ask about the opening times once again.

For all of those who are sad because they don't own a boat, we will tell you now, there is a small catamaran, a „Golondrina", in the St. Clarles de la Rapitá harbour that, on a daily basis during the Xiringuito "La Costa" opening hours, take you across in summer in the morning at 11:00 hrs and naturally pick you up again.

All in all a wonderful day trip which is well worth it and will never be forgotten by you; your family or your friends
