Yachting Illusion
May 06 2014
"Everyone has that yachtie friend who posts those nauseating updates of white beaches and rolling skylines. And while you sit at your desk and consider your life not lived, they live (or appear to live) in a dream world of easy money, amazing places and famous guests."
The Yachting Illusion was a very interesting article that Colin had emailed me a few weeks ago. The blog site, known as "The Swedish African" shares some awesome information for South Africans abroad.
The Yachting Illusion tells it like it is and to all those glamour boys and girls who think the industry is just one long fun holiday...
"Don't dumb it down - yachting is a skill. Serving people and keeping them safe at sea is a skill, especially when your dealing with the worlds richest people and brashest ego's."
