4.7 out of 5 stars from 14 ratings
  • Occasional connection to real Yachting

    A bunch of talks on general subjects rarely related to yachting. The few I tried to listen to are boring, self centred and meaningless.

    Some people may think adding ‘Yacht’ to the headline touches glamour… it mostly presents cluelessness. But in today’s world probably 30% of the people would hear all that without listening. Just a background noise… 😎 I prefer a dentist drill over that.
