Do you have your own yachts and are they insured?

The real estate market in Dubai has gone through various stages but remains attractive to investors. The city is constantly growing, with new projects emerging, such as Dubai Creek Harbour, which will feature the tallest tower in the world—Dubai Creek Tower. I visited District One, an elite area with villas around an artificial lagoon, where the crystal-clear water and white sand create a tropical paradise atmosphere. Investments in real estate in Dubai are appealing due to the absence of property taxes and the opportunity for rental income. The government is implementing measures to regulate the market to ensure stability and protect buyers' rights. I spoke with agents and property owners, and many noted the promising nature of long-term investments.

Dubai is considered one of the safest cities in the world, and I personally felt very comfortable there. However, as with any major city, it's important to follow basic precautions. Always keep an eye on your belongings, especially in crowded places like markets or shopping malls. Respect for local laws and customs is a key aspect of safety. Avoid conflicts and do not disrupt public order. Remember that drinking alcohol in public while intoxicated can result in fines or arrest. I always tried to be courteous and mindful, which made my stay pleasant and carefree.

Yachts undergo maintenance in accordance with the schedule established.

Yachts often prefer to go barefoot for several reasons: Safety and deck protection Avoiding damage: The soles of the shoes can damage the wooden or composite decks of yachts, leaving scratches and dents. This is especially true for yachts with a teak deck, which requires careful maintenance. Cleanliness: Shoes can bring dirt, sand and pebbles on board, which can not only spoil the appearance, but also create potential dangers for people on board. Convenience and comfort Grip: The deck of a yacht is often wet and slippery, especially when moving. Bare feet provide better grip on the surface, which helps prevent falls and injuries. Tactile sensations: Walking barefoot allows you to feel the deck surface better, which can be especially important when moving on uneven or wet surfaces. Maritime traditions Yachting traditions: There are well-established traditions and norms of behavior in the yachting world, one of which is walking barefoot on board. This is respect for the ship and its owner, as well as for other passengers. Aesthetics: Walking barefoot is often associated with a certain aesthetic and lifestyle characteristic of a yacht vacation. These reasons together make barefoot sailing a practical and reasonable choice, contributing to the safety, cleanliness and comfort of all on board.

Dubai's cultural scene is constantly evolving, offering a variety of events. Dubai Opera is an architectural masterpiece shaped like a traditional dhow boat. I attended a performance there and was impressed by the acoustics and comfort of the hall. The Opera's program includes ballet, musicals, classical concerts, and even contemporary shows. Magic Planet in Mall of the Emirates offers family entertainment programs, including theatrical productions and artist performances. Coca-Cola Arena is the largest indoor multi-purpose arena in the region, hosting concerts by global stars, sporting events, and festivals. I attended a concert of my favorite band and appreciated the high level of organization and technology.

The main materials for the construction of yachts include: Fiberglass: Lightweight, strong and durable material, widely used for the construction of the hull and superstructure of yachts. Aluminum: A durable and lightweight metal, resistant to corrosion, often used for the construction of hulls and masts. Steel: Has high strength and durability, is used for the construction of large and expedition yachts. Composite materials: They include carbon fiber and Kevlar, provide high strength with low weight, and are used in racing and high-performance yachts. Wood: A traditional material for classic and wooden yachts, provides an aesthetic appearance and comfort, but requires regular maintenance.

Yachts use various navigation systems to ensure safe and accurate sailing: GPS (Global Positioning System): The main system for location and navigation. Modern GPS receivers provide data on the coordinates, speed and course of the yacht. Chartplotters: Electronic devices that display maps and integrate GPS data, providing a visual representation of the route and surrounding objects. Autopilots: Automatic control systems that help maintain the yacht's course without the constant intervention of the captain. AIS (Automatic Identification System): An automatic identification system that allows you to see other vessels in the field of view and exchange data on location, speed and course. Radar systems: Used to detect objects and navigate in low visibility conditions such as fog or night. Echo sounders: Devices for measuring the depth of water under the keel of a yacht, which helps to avoid shoals and underwater obstacles. Paper nautical charts and compasses: Traditional navigation tools that remain important in the case of failure of electronic systems.
