Anti Theft Jet Ski Trailer

By Low Jeremy

A jet ski doesn�t run on land. That is why, in order for you to bring it to the waters where it belongs, you should have a tool to transport it. You must need a jet ski trailer. But transporting you jet ski is one thing. Protecting it from thieves is another. And the first line of defense you can do in order to avoid it is to make sure that your trailer is safe and secured.

If you cannot transport your jet ski without a trailer, no one could. So it is important to keep your trailer secured as well.

Here�s how:

Strap your jet ski to the trailer securely. This is important because if the jet ski is secured to the trailer, any attempt to remove it will not work. Make sure that you provide the thief a major task. In other words, you give the thief too much work that can cause too much noise and draws too much attention so that they will be forced to find an easier prey.

If staying at the garage, make sure that the trailer could not be moved in any way possible. Remember that a truck and haul your trailer easily so make sure that there is no possibility that that trailer can be moved. You can consider removing the wheels of the trailer during long off-season period.

Never in any circumstance leave the jet ski and jet ski trailer unattended while outside. Though it can be secured on a certain location, it would be very advisable to keep an eye on them at all times. If you are staying at a hotel, have it parked securely or have a hotel attendant to man your jet ski. Keep it covered so that the risk is lessened. If parked on an open space, install a trailer anti-theft wheel lock so that no one can move your trailer while you are away.

Make sure you invest on a good chain. You can chain it secured during the day or dock it to an immovable place.

A waterproof battery disconnect switch could prevent theft from staring your jet ski. You can purchase one and you can assure yourself that no one can ever start your jet ski.

With a little price to pay for the stuff you need to buy and time you need to spend, you can spare one of your priced possessions from going away from you.

Cruising yachts are by the far the most common yacht in private use, making up most of the 25' to 45' (7 m to 14 m) range. These vessels can be quite complex in design, as they need a balance between docile handling qualities, interior space, good light-wind performance and on-board comfort. The huge range of such craft, from dozens of builders worldwide, makes it hard to give a single illustrative description. However, most favour a teardrop-planform hull, with a wide, flat bottom and deep single-fin keel to give good stability. Most are single-masted Bermuda rigged sloops, with a single fore-sail of the jib or Genoa type and a single mainsail. Spinnaker sails,in various sizes, are often supplied for down-wind use. These types are often chosen as family vessels, especially those in the 30- to 40-foot (8 to 12 m) range. Such a vessel will usually have many cabins below deck. Typically there will be three double-berth cabins; a single large saloon with galley, seating and navigation equipment; and a "head" consisting of a toilet and shower-room.

Applications for jetboats include most activities where conventional propellers are also used, but in particular passenger ferry services, coastguard and police patrol, navy and military, adventure tourism (which is becoming increasingly popular around the globe), pilot boat operations, surf rescue, farming, fishing, exploration, pleasure boating, and other water activities where motor boats are used. Jetboats can also be raced for sport, both on rivers and on specially designed racecourses. Many jetboats are small enough to be carried on a trailer and towed by car. Recently there has been increasing use of jetboats in the form of rigid-hulled inflatable boats and as luxury yacht tenders.

Apart from the obvious hazards of collisions and mechanical breakdowns common to all vehicles, personal watercraft feature the unique hazard of orifice injuries. Such injuries are the logical result of the unusually close proximity of PWC riders to the output end of the pump jet, as well as the fact that personal watercraft are usually not enclosed. A rider who falls (or is ejected) off the back can land directly in the path of the PWC's high-pressure jet of water. Unless a rider is appropriately dressed in garments made out of a strong, thick substance like neoprene (as is commonly found in wetsuits), the jet will easily penetrate any orifice it reaches. The consequences include permanent disability or death.For example, in 2006, the California Court of Appeal (First District) upheld a $3.7 million Napa County jury verdict against Polaris Industries arising out of one such incident (which had devastating effects on the victim's lower abdomen).

Manual vs Electric Windlass For Sailing Yacht?

Mon, 17 Sep 2007 10:37:13 +0200
From all of your experience is it feasible to use a manual windlass or are the 12 volt models the only way to go on a sailing yacht? The cost of the manual models is so much less that i would like to go that way. I have just found out the hard way that pulling up and anchor and chain by hand in a windward anchorage can be difficult and dangerous. Thanks for your thoughts.
