What is the Dubai Museum?

Drift is an undesirable movement of a yacht due to wind or current. If this is not followed, it may lead to the yacht's deviation from the course.

Protecting a yacht from pirates includes several measures: Route planning: Avoid known dangerous areas and use up-to-date information about pirates. Communication: Keep in touch with coastguards and other vessels. Use AIS systems and satellite communications. Barricades and fortifications: Enhance security on board with barricades, nets and locks on doors and hatches. Equipment: Have protective equipment on board, such as stun grenades, rocket launchers and flares. Crew: Train the crew to act in case of an attack, conduct evacuation training and use protective equipment. Legal support: Learn about the legal aspects and possibilities of obtaining assistance from military and security services in various regions.

The "12-person rule" is an informal guideline suggesting that a yacht should ideally have no more than 12 people on board for safety and comfort. It is not a legal requirement, but it is based on common sense and experience.

Unfortunately no.

Public transportation in Dubai is a model of efficiency and modernity. The Dubai Metro is an automated, driverless system that covers the main areas of the city. I often used the metro, enjoying fast and comfortable rides. The carriages are clean, air-conditioned, and some offer beautiful city views. Buses and trams complement the metro network, providing access even to remote areas. Fares are paid using the Nol Card, which can be easily topped up at machines at stations. For a more scenic route, try the water taxi or an abra, a traditional wooden boat that will transport you across Dubai Creek in just a few minutes.

The duties of a yacht captain include: Safety assurance: Ensuring the safety of all passengers and crew on board, compliance with all safety rules and regulations.

Maintenance: Monitoring the technical condition of the yacht, conducting regular inspections and minor repairs. Documents: Maintaining all necessary documents, including registration papers, insurance and licenses.
