urltoken was a reseller on amazon . com , and you could find their products via urltoken or froogle .
the popular mozilla thunderbird email client bundled with a urltoken launcher as a portable app .
he added that each time scanalert withdrew its certification ,
urltoken ' s it staff worked diligently to fix the problem . as of today , urltoken is meeting the hacker safe security standard .
gencia corporation and compgeeks . com , also d / b / a computer geeks discount outlet and urltoken
as a former reseller and heavy previous buyer from their sister company evertek . com , we slowed our pace greatly when urltoken came out as they were undercutting us on many deals straight to the consumer . they also sometimes kept stock on urltoken that they sold out on urltoken which left us with a bad taste .
but then they mentioned urltoken and wtf it is essentially the geeks site and inventory just with a different skin .

the plain urltoken wasn ' t familiar to me . like when facebook used to be urltoken , and later changed it ; for a long while i insisted on still writing out urltoken cause it felt wrong to shorten it , not being true to it ' s original state .

even so , the incident at urltoken has rekindled a debate about the value of security seals such as the hacker safe logo .
had a fairly technical issue i needed looked at , put in a support ticket , problem solved . total time taken : 5 minut… urltoken
soon , giddygeeker decided to enlarge the group to include other local geeks and set up a community on urltoken . and the charlotte geeks grew in numbers .
a domain name - a domain name such as urltoken allows visitors to easily find your online store . domain names are registered for a fee and renew yearly .
urltoken is a leading direct to consumer ecommerce site , and local store , full of discounted consumer electronics . we specialize in highly discounted refurbished high end electronics , manufacturer closeouts , excess inventory , and geeky gadgets . urltoken launched in 1996 , connecting savvy shoppers directly to the best deals on high end , rare , and cool electronics .
advertisements on this site are placed and controlled by outside advertising networks . urltoken does not evaluate or endorse the products and services advertised . see the faq for more information .
but napa , calif . - based scanalert was put on the defensive this month after online technology retailer urltoken warned an undisclosed number of customers that their personal and credit card data may have been compromised in a hacking incident . urltoken , whose formal name is genica corp . , displays the hacker safe logo at the bottom of its home page .
that ' s a good point . . . urltoken is a really neat domain name ; i ' d be willing to pay as much as a $ 1000 for it .
according to the article , urltoken ' s parent company , genica corp , has mailed letters to affected customers and set up an 800 number . according to a sans newsletter ,
however , nigel ravenhill , a scanalert spokesman , said today via e - mail that the vendor had withdrawn the hacker safe certification from urltoken
several times
last year due to the existence of vulnerabilities in the retailer ' s systems . urltoken fell out of compliance with scanalert ' s security requirements last june and then again in december , according to ravenhill .
a telephone operator at urltoken ' s headquarters in oceanside , calif . , said that she was unable to find anyone at the retailer who could comment about the incident . she instead provided a toll - free telephone number - - ( 888 ) 529 - 6261 - - that urltoken has set up to assist customers with questions and concerns related to the incident .
there must be other reasons in play here . amazon and such are not big on offering cheap / refurbished equipment , which is what urltoken sold a lot of ( to me , anyway )

a scanalert spokesman said
preliminary evidence
suggests that the breach likely occurred during one of several periods last year when scanalert had withdrawn its certification from urltoken after finding vulnerabilities on the web site .

said by » urltoken ··· / 100508 / : the parent company of discount retail website urltoken has notified affected customers that a hacker may have accessed their credit card numbers and other personal information in a december incident . the website features the
hacker safe
notification from mcafee scanalert . . . . affected customers can call 1 - 888 - 529 - 6261 or 1 - 212 - 560 - 5108 for help .
there ' s a niche for a company that sells refurbished equipment at a higher price than ebay but offers a more polished experience . either urltoken didn ' t execute or they didn ' t get the word out .
you are also entitled under u . s . law to one free credit report annually from each of the three major credit bureaus . to order your free credit report , visit urltoken or call toll - free ( 877 ) 322 - 8228 . for additional information on how to further protect yourself against identity theft , you may wish to visit the web site of the u . s . federal trade commission at urltoken , or , for california residents , the web site of the california office of privacy protection at urltoken . again , we deeply regret this incident and any inconvenience or concern it may cause you . we are working diligently to investigate and resolve the matter . sincerely ,
i have purchased from urltoken a . k . a . computer geeks a brand new laptop dell inspiron 17r 5720 but instead i have received a used one . the proving facts are the following : 1 . the previous owner of the laptop received has left a manually burned dvd titled
national treasure book of secrets - nicolas cage
inside the dvd drive . 2 . the previous owner of the laptop received has already registered the laptop with dell one month before i have received laptop . 3 . the brand new condition of the product purchased was clearly stated on its sales order and in the following link : urltoken be aware of the fact that urltoken a . k . a . computer geeks is committing fraud to customers .
i ordered a 3ghz core 2 duo lenovo refurbished from urltoken and it arrived less than a week later . the lenovo was clean , as advertised and works extremely well with the linux operating system i installed on it . wayne chirnsde saint petersburg , fl .

urltoken ( or urltoken which is where i initially discovered them back in circa ' 98 ) is / was totally awesome . i bought new or refurbished from them and never had a problem at all . it was one of those ' shop - all ' places for yester - new hardware , which imho , holds alot of merit against shops like newegg and a like today that only house ' latest - and - greatest ' and have a pretty short shelf life for old tech . if i needed to find a cpu type
up until now i ' ve been very satisfied with urltoken . however , i wanted to return one item out of four purchased this month , only to find that that item alone was
not warranteed by urltoken
and therefore i could not send it back . they should tell you up front that all sales are final when you buy the products , not when you want to return one . i suggest buyers be careful before buying from them - - because even if something is defective , they won ' t take it back !
said by millenniumle : from : » urltoken ··· 05600099 quote : scanalert spokesman nigel ravenhill e - mailed informationweek the following statement :
so far , no one in marketing or pr knows exactly what happened , or whether this breach occurred on the web site or somewhere else . there is no evidence that this web site was hacked while it was certified hacker safe online . in fact , all of the information that scanalert has gathered so far indicates that this breach did not happen while urltoken was certified hacker safe paying attention at all .
in addition , urltoken has brought in outside help to investigate the intrusion .
we have engaged an outside , nationally recognized security firm to determine how this incident occurred and to confirm that information we obtain is protected to the fullest extent reasonably possible ,
harken wrote .
the
debranded
computer i bought from urltoken was defective . so i returned and paid my own shipping . they told me nothing was wrong and shipped it back . now , it fails again , so they are willing to pay the shipping for me and reexamine .
at our core , we are geeks at heart with interest and expertise in the products we sell . we will always strive to offer the best stuff at the best price to our customers . urltoken seeks to offer the best deals on brand name electronics and high tech gadgets .
according to the ftc’s complaint , urltoken ( compgeeks ) , which operates the urltoken web site , and its parent company , genica corporation ( genica ) , collect sensitive information from consumers to obtain authorization for credit card purchases . the respondents require each consumer to provide his or her first and last name ; address ; e - mail address ; telephone number ; and credit card number , expiration date , and security code . in january 2008 , media reports revealed a data breach at the company . it was later confirmed that hackers accessed the sensitive information of hundreds of consumers .
copies of the complaint , proposed consent agreement , and an analysis of the agreement to aid in public comment are available from both the ftc’s web site at urltoken and the ftc’s consumer response center , room 130 , 600 pennsylvania avenue , n . w . , washington , dc 20580 .
we have provided names and contact information for the three major u . s . credit bureaus below . at no charge , you can have the agency place a “fraud alert” on your file that alerts creditors to take additional steps to verify your identity prior to granting credit in your name . this service can make it more difficult for someone to get credit in your name . note , however , that because it tells creditors to follow certain procedures to protect you , it also may delay your ability to obtain credit while the agency verifies your identity . as soon as one credit bureau confirms your fraud alert , the others are notified to place fraud alerts on your file . should you wish to place a fraud alert , or should you have any questions regarding your credit report , please contact any one of the agencies listed below . agency toll - free website experian 888 - 397 - 3742 urltoken equifax 800 - 525 - 6285 urltoken transunion 800 - 680 - 7289 urltoken
now when you call them , they will give you a rma no . and a printable label so you can return damaged items at your cost . yes , i know how generous of them and because the family members i did the repairs for ordered the parts with their credit or debit cards , geeks will only talk to them . unfortunately they do not know anything about the parts of a computer . so urltoken will just frustrate you until it ' s no longer worth the time and effort , it would just be easier to go to the local computer parts store and pay twice the price , which after dealing with urltoken seems like a bargain .
hey paul . actually , as a recruiter who gets paid flat fees ( urltoken ) , the result of this is not likely to up my income at all . though for most recruiters , you would probably be correct . but if it raises the income of others in the industry who are deserving , i’m happy for them .
urltoken is a $ 150 million company specializing in the sale of computer - related excess inventory and manufacturers ' closeouts . its web site prominently proclaims that it is tested on a daily basis by scanalert inc . , a vendor in santa clara , calif . , that agreed in october to be acquired by mcafee inc . ( download pdf ) .
i used to shop at computer urltoken , which was then urltoken and quite frankly the service was abysmal . early on it wasn ' t so bad , but about the time i stopped shopping there they stopped bothering to even fill out the specifications on the things they were selling . the last order i made with them was to use a credit i had from returning the previous thing . the bluetooth head set didn ' t work right , and i found out that it was incompatible , but they didn ' t bother to fill in the specs . i didn ' t even bother to return it as it would have cost me more to return it , just to get another store credit .
if you bought anything from urltoken in at least the last year or so , you might want to start paying close attention to your credit card statements—the company sent out an email on friday telling former customers that they “recently discovered on december 5 , 2007 that customer information , including visa credit card information , may have been compromised . ” full email after the jump .
the deflection of salary questions is pretty common advice ( most popular item on that is likely this urltoken ) . obviously it has backfired , whether he’s seen it or not , but that’s not all that relevant , and most engineers will use the ‘sour grapes’ approach if it does backfire ( “i wouldn’t want to work for any company that requires me to provide my salary history anyway” ) .
thanks for that update , interesting ! just two weeks ago i listened to an interview with a software engineer that provides salary negotiation coaching for other software engineers , and he advised deflecting the salary question . he said he had never seen it backfire . ( urltoken ) – interesting that at your first job , you were flat out told to stop negotiating with candidates that wouldn’t provide that information .

the above quote unfortunately isn ' t dated , but it does seem safe is better than sorry . the article was last updated to include the quote on january 9th .
so far , no one knows exactly what happened [ . . . . ]
of course , scanalert may be obfuscating to save face .
scanalert says its vulnerability scanning service is designed to constantly monitor web sites for vulnerabilities that could compromise customer data . the service is used by more than 250 , 000 web sites , of which about 80 , 000 - - including urltoken - - display scanalert ' s
hacker safe
seal . scanalert describes the seal as a
trustmark
that is designed to help reassure consumers about a site ' s security precautions .
. . . is that it all comes from one warehouse location there in oceanside . i worked for them for a short time as a temp . it was a less than fond experience , but that ' s beside the point . all merchandise for the 3 arms of the company come from the same stock . i forget what the 3rd company name they sold under was , but the items you bought under urltoken was the same stuff you bought
wholesale
under evertek . com . i can only guess at why they feel the need to end the online arm of urltoken if the store part will remain open , and the other arms ( if the third still operates ) use the same pool of stock . i will say this , they sold a lot of things that i wouldn ' t bother going to newegg for because it would cost more .

you don ' t shutdown , you adapt : newegg , amazon , sears and even walmart adapted to the ebay model , so now sellers can sell their own merchandise on amazon and newegg and buyers don ' t even know the difference . only way you can tell is it says
item provided by $ sellers _ name
somewhere . that way urltoken wouldn ' t need any merchandise , they would just operate the domain and hosting and take a percentage of every sale .
i ' m assuming he means amazon . com . newegg is big , but hardly a 1000lb gorilla , and there really isn ' t anyone else major selling anything online amazon is far in the lead indeed : amazon 2011 revenue : 48 billion rakuten / urltoken 2011 revenue : 4 . 7 billion newegg 2011 revenue : 2 . 5 billion ( supposedly newegg is the # 2 online retailer in the us though , a good portion of rakuten ' s sales are in se asia )

the parent company of discount retail website urltoken has notified affected customers that a hacker may have accessed their credit card numbers and other personal information in a december incident . the website features the “hacker safe” notification from mcafee scanalert . genica corp . discovered on dec . 5 that a hacker may have accessed customers ' names , addresses , telephone numbers , email addresses and credit card information when he or she accessed its ecommerce website , jerry harken , chief of security , told customers in a letter sent friday .
wall street still keeps their stock price up because of rising revenues so amazon can borrow money with impunity to make up for these losses . this allows them to keep dropping prices even when they are losing money . a small company cannot do this . it isn ' t hard to raise revenues when you don ' t have to care about profitability or cash flow when setting your prices . this is why urltoken was complaining that wall street allows large companies to succeed with business models which would put smbs out of business .
the purpose of this letter is to notify you that genica dba urltoken ( “genica” ) recently discovered on december 5 , 2007 that customer information , including visa credit card information , may have been compromised . in particular , it is possible that an unauthorized person may be in possession of your name , address , telephone number , email address , credit card number , expiration date , and card verification number . we are still investigating the details of this incident , but it appears that an unauthorized individual may have accessed this information by hacking our ecommerce website .
for the last couple of years , i have been ordering things for mostly family members from urltoken computers , motherboards , memory and almost every time they fail to send all that is included with the purchase like drivers , cables and etc . sometimes , the product is broken in the package , on three different occasions for me . but this last time , my mother bought me a server motherboard combo kit for my 38th birthday and when i received it , low and behold , the driver disk wasn ' t there , the ide cable wasn ' t there , the scsi cable wasn ' t there and one of the cpu heat risers looked like it was stepped on .

in october 2009 , the charlotte geeks celebrated their first anniversary by holding their first geek gala – a costumed charity event . the proceeds were donated to youth homes , a private nonprofit organization helping foster and adoptive children in need . over 90 geeks were there ! and so it became an annual thing . in 2014 , over 200 geeks partied on and over $ 4k was raised . youth homes has since become childrens’ home society of nc ( urltoken ) – and the charlotte geeks donation helped fund a major chunk of their needed budget for their new program . for 2016 , the charlotte geeks chose to work with the dave thomas foundation for adoption – with chsnc being one of the beneficiaries .
the complaint alleges that until at least december 2007 , among other security failures , the respondents routinely stored this sensitive information in unencrypted text on their corporate computer network . the complaint also charges that the respondents did not adequately assess whether their web application and network were vulnerable to commonly known or reasonably foreseeable attacks , such as structured query language ( sql ) injection attacks . the respondents also did not implement simple , readily available defenses to these attacks ; defenses that were free or inexpensive . and – from january 2007 or earlier through june 2007 or later – hackers repeatedly exploited these vulnerabilities by using sql injection attacks on the urltoken web site , the complaint alleges . the respondents did not become aware of the breach until december 2007 .
urltoken my advice would be do not buy from them unless you are in the us . they claim they deliver to australia . paid with my credit card , then received an email that they are
currently reconsidering their payment policy
they haven ' t put on their website yet . and that they will only accept a wire transfer ( $ 20 fee + extra days of waiting ) . when i asked them to stick to the terms on their website , they turned deaf and rude ( did not bother to respond back ) . unprofessional , unclear in their terms , wasted two days of my life . by the way the funds they authorized on my credit card ( yes , they did not accept my card yet took funds from it ) may remain blocked for another 30 days .

an online seller of computer supplies and other consumer electronics has agreed to settle federal trade commission charges that it violated federal law by failing to provide reasonable security to protect sensitive customer data .
the proposed settlement bars the respondents from making deceptive privacy and data security claims and requires them to implement and maintain a comprehensive information - security program that includes administrative , technical , and physical safeguards . it also requires the companies to obtain , every other year for 10 years , an audit from a qualified , independent , third - party professional to ensure that the security program meets the standards of the order . in addition , the proposed settlement contains standard record - keeping provisions to allow the ftc to monitor compliance .
the ftc complaint names as respondents compgeeks , doing business as computer geeks discount outlet and geeks . com ; and genica , which , as compgeeks’ parent company , allegedly controlled the practices at issue . according to the complaint , the respondents violated federal law by falsely stating that they took reasonable and appropriate measures to protect personal information from unauthorized access . their privacy policy states in part : “we use secure technology , privacy protection controls , and restrictions on employee access in order to safeguard your information . ”
the commission vote to accept the proposed complaint and consent agreement was 4 - 0 . the ftc will publish an announcement regarding the agreement in the federal register shortly . the agreement will be subject to public comment for 30 days , beginning today and continuing through march 9 , 2009 , after which the commission will decide whether to make it final .
comments should be addressed to the ftc , office of the secretary , room h - 135 , 600 pennsylvania avenue , n . w . , washington , dc 20580 . the ftc is requesting that any comment filed in paper form near the end of the public comment period be sent by courier or overnight service , if possible , because u . s . postal mail in the washington area and at the commission is subject to delay due to heightened security precautions .
the federal trade commission works for consumers to prevent fraudulent , deceptive , and unfair business practices and to provide information to help spot , stop , and avoid them . to file a complaint in english or spanish , visit the ftc’s online complaint assistant or call 1 - 877 - ftc - help ( 1 - 877 - 382 - 4357 ) . the ftc enters complaints into consumer sentinel , a secure , online database available to more than 1 , 500 civil and criminal law enforcement agencies in the u . s . and abroad . the ftc’s web site provides free information on a variety of consumer topics .
our media resources library provides one - stop collections of materials on numerous issues in which the ftc has been actively engaged . these pages are especially useful for members of the media .

bowman yachts is a brand of the british premium yachtbuilder rustler yachts , which is based in falmouth , cornwall .

they are known for handbuilding traditionally styled glassfibre composite ocean cruising yachts , with a high quality of workmanship .

bowman existed as an independent company for many years , before merging with rival yachts to form rival bowman .

the company went into receivership in november 2001 , and was acquired by rustler yachts in 2002 , which moved manufacturing to its yard in falmouth .

both rustler 's own yachts , and yachts produced under the bowman brand , are produced in the same factory constructed in 2005 , as was the starlight brand , formerly owned by rival bowman , until 2011 .

bowman hulls are available part complete for fitting out by the owner , in addition to factory-completed boats .

rival bowman , which went into receivership last november , has been bought by the falmouth - based yacht manufacturer , rustler yachts .

it ' s no secret that hmy yachts lists and sells more viking yachts than any other brokerage firm . the 60 ' - 70 ' viking market currently has an excellent selection of new and used yachts available . over the last 90 days , hmy has sold several used viking yachts in this range including a 2015 viking 70 convertible , two 68 ' convertibles , and several 64 ' , 61 ' , and 60 ' convertibles . here are 10 viking yachts between 60 and 70 feet that are available now and can get you on the water in a new boat for the summer fishing season .
the bowman 48 has been recognized by the british yachting establishment as being the one of thefinest british built design ever offered to the conservative long distance sailor . the bowman 48s were fast in comparison with traditionally styled yachts of the time , and had a lovely motion and forgiving steering and stability characteristics at sea . ten bowman 48 ' s are now cruising the world ' s oceans and with the acquisition of the molds by rustler yachts of falmouth there are should be more to come .
at the end of a long search , the boat that sang to us was a bowman 57 ketch , which was designed by holman & pye , who later designed many oysters , and built in 1976 by bowman yachts , located in southampton , england . we named her aleria .
the southampton based boat builders and repairers , rival bowman yachts limited , has been placed into administrative receivership . ryan densham , business recovery services partner at pricewaterhousecoopers was appointed joint administrative receiver on tuesday 6 november 2001 .
the bowman yacht range is well known and highly respected and in the past three years a new starlight range of yachts has been added to the company’s product range . the starlight yacht has been well received by the market .
the deal , whereby rustler yachts will take ownership of the tooling and manufacturing rights of the rival bowman and starlight ranges , will create many new jobs and strengthen rustler’s market share and reputation of building sea worthy blue water cruisers .
slender , elegant , and spirited , the bowman 57 is a standard with refined styling .
the assets of failed u . k . boatbuilder rival bowman have been sold , and the purchasers are operating from the existing rival bowman site , the joint administrative receiver said . stephen hall , of the bristol office of pricewaterhousecoopers , confirmed in mid - december , that it had sold the assets of rival bowman yachts ltd .
we werent able to sell the business as a going concern ,
he said .
we sold all the assets last thursday , 6 december .
back from the dead , eh . i regret i can ' t shed any light on the history of bowman yachts but i remember this thread well . the boat in the video is not slamming but hobby - horsing . this is a condition of wind and sea where the yacht pecks away in the same hole to windward getting nowhere . slamming is what happens when you do it in a different boat to the bowman shown

then we sailed the boat . it was windy , as it always is on the solent on the fall and the boat stood up to all that wind beautifully and went like a train on rails . charles was overjoyed with the way it sailed - much faster than the former brett designs . the boot - top was repainted two inches higher on the hull , the displacement figure was changed on the sales brochures and bowman yachts went on to build more than fifty of the yachts and came back to me for 3 more designs .
over nearly 20 years , rival - bowman have carved themselves a niche for producing no - compromise cruising yachts . their quality , both in materials and workmanship , is the genuine variety rather than that claimed universally at boat shows and in brochures . whilst one can chose from a number of 40 - footers sporting greater volume interiors , extra cabins and more fashionable styling , the bowman 40 has the same sort of attraction a mercedes has over a similar - sized toyota sports car .
the bowman 42 is an upgraded and modernised version of the bowman 40 . the counter stern has been lengthened in order to create more stowage space in the lazarette and a sleaker appearance to the yacht in general . two new keels have been designed in addition to the very shoal draft scheel keel which had been standard on the 40 . the first bowman 42 has won many racing honours including first in class in the 1998 arc .

you really couldn ' t go far wrong choosing a bowman 40 for cruising , and being so solidly constructed means she ' ll hold her value in today ' s second - hand market .
according to hall , that process will take about six months , after which the company , originally founded in 1965 on the banks of the river itchen in southampton , will be no more . the yard originally built the peter brett - designed rival range of boats , producing more than 500 over the years . the tie - up with bowman came in the early 1980s and saw the range expand up to the bowman 84 . ten years later , sadler international was added to the bowman group , with the two sadlers alongside the stephen jones - designed starlight 35 and 29 .

the bowman 46 corsair was designed by holman & * pye as a capable offshore cruiser . the design became known as a proven passagemaker with a sea kindly motion and a fine turn of speed . purchased
the rival bowman company will now be gradually wound up .
there are certain statutory things we have to do ,
said hall .
after that the company will probably be struck off .
a bowman 45 with a special pedigree . this yacht has world cruising in her dna and is coming back to seek more horizons . the owners have cared for her with thoughtful , practical updates that they have
a wonderful opportunity to own a bowman 36 that has a beautifully crafted and presented interior . a much loved vessel reluctantly for sale due to owner ' s ill health . a viewing would be highly recommended .
when the firm went into administrative receivership on november 6 , the yards range included the chuck paine - designed bowman 42 , 45 , and 48 , plus the stephen jones - designed starlight 35 , 39 and 46 .
pricewaterhousecoopers was appointed joint administrative receiver of rival bowman yachts ltd . early last november . its task was to realize assets with a view to repaying , where possible , the appointer , other parties with charges that rank ahead of the appointer , and the preferential creditors . preferential creditors include government agencies , such as the inland revenue and department of social security , together with employee claims for wages , holiday pay and pension arrears . hall was not allowed to say who had bought the assets , although he confirmed
at the moment they are operating from the same site .
i sailed on a holman & pye designed bowman 45 of circa 1980 . had the holman rolls really bad & to be honest it was a bit of a slowcoach . certainly was nothing special , although finish etc was first class . got the impression that the owner was not overly impressed either . he sold it after a few years ( from new ) for a one off design . if that was a typical bowman then you can keep them
the bowman 45 was adapted from the slightly earlier morris 44 . she was 2 inches deeper in the water than the morris due to being built to lloyds standards and had 4 inches added to the height of the hull .
all manufacturing will move to falmouth , except for the starlight 46 , which will continue to be constructed at the rival bowman ocean quay yard in southampton . plans include formation of a parent company to run all three separate brands .
with a beam of less than 15 feet , the bowman 57 is svelte by current standards , and the design ' s slenderness makes a difference belowdecks . it ' s possible to traverse her length with handholds all the way .
i had my weather eye open for a new british customer and rival yachts were at the top of my list . their previous designer had passed away and the time would come when they would want a new design . i didn ' t want to be an ambulance chaser so struggled with how i would introduce myself without appearing overly aggressive . i was spared the trouble .
i raced on a bowman 46 yawl in clyde week in 1973 , a beautiful yacht and saw another one in kalamos a few years ago . the yawl version features in the proper yacht by arthur besier , a few pages about it .
china time , a 2012 viking yachts 70 ' enclosed bridge , is currently listed for sale with hmy yacht sales owner and ceo steve moynihan . china time has had the benefit of two very careful and knowledgeable owners who lavished her with service and maintenance that was always performed at the viking yachts service center in riviera beach . currently located in palm beach gardens , florida , china time can be seen by appointment . the twin 2600hp mtu engines have 3 , 600 hours that perform wonderfully . she has a full complement of factory and custom options , a fabulous interior , and twin 27 . 5kw onan generators that will keep you fishing in comfort . china time ' s asking price is $ 3 , 870 , 000 . to schedule an appointment or for more information on china time , please click here .
all of the bowman ' s are beautiful . . . . . . . . . . . . . but this one is in a league of her own . year 2000 and only 2 owners from new , she has only light use . blue hu
would she suit you and your crew ? the bowman 40 was primarily designed for taking serious sailors offshore in all weather and sea conditions . very few sacrifices in seaworthiness have been made to make her more inviting for a horde of guests , but to me this feels right . and to prove it , take a look at the scandinavian blue water cruising yachts built today – most of them don’t look a lot different to this boat , do they ? she is great for a couple who want to sail anywhere , anytime and still feel safe . there’s room for a guest couple , and even the kids , so long as they don’t expect to stay forever . i love the acres of lockers and the sensible use of any empty cavity for handy stowage , which is exactly what a cruising yacht needs . you really couldn’t go far wrong choosing a bowman 40 for cruising , and being so solidly constructed and well equipped means she’ll hold her value in today’s second - hand market .
with this background and the considerable skills of chuck paine , the bowman 40 has everything going for her . she has to be regarded as the near ideal ocean cruising yacht for between two and four people capable of passage - making to anywhere in the world without modification .
by modern awb -
average white boat
standards , she may seem a tad old fashioned - no sumptuous aft cabin and a relatively small cockpit - but great for passage making . on their launch back in the late 80s , bowman 40 ' s were described in a yachting monthly review as follows :
back from the dead , eh . the boat in the video is not slamming but hobby - horsing . this is a condition of wind and sea where the yacht pecks away in the same hole to windward getting nowhere . slamming is what happens when you do it in a different boat to the bowman shown
the companys turnover in the last financial year , which ended april 20 , 2001 , totaled gbp3 . 7 million , and it recently employed 40 people , officials said . this is the second time pricewaterhousecoopers has dealt with receivership at bowman . on april 20 , 1998 , the company went into voluntary receivership , with the then - director and major shareholder , tony davies , citing
trading difficulties
as the cause of that crash . davies singled out the strong pound as the major problem .
the boat i was on , see earlier post , was a bowman 40 . she was not hobby horsing but definately slamming . we were hard on the wind going around finesterre in bottom end of force 7 , making steady and dry progress to windward , but she came off waves with a bang ! it didn ' t seem to make much difference if we bore off down the face of the wave . if we had reduced sail and speed we would then have hobby horsed and made little forward progress .
as was usual with boats of this size and vintage , bowman 57s were customized for individual owners . aleria , formerly grand dame , had been originally commissioned by the pianist andre watts . the galley has custom - designed tile work , corian countertops , double stainless - steel full - size sinks , a three - burner stove , cabinets galore , and double refrigeration compartments . in this long galley , on the starboard side under the cockpit , bracing yourself is easy : cabinetry and bulkheads bind its entire length .

just in case an opportunity might arise i decided to spend my time stuck at that drafting table sketching my idea of the next rival yacht . the largest yacht in the rival line was a 41 footer and the next smaller a 38 so i figured 40 feet was about right . i had the sketch just about finished on my 3rd day standing at peter ' s drafting table when 2 impeccably dressed
city types
walked over and peered down curiously at what i was doing . it turns out they both owned rival 36s and were at earls court looking at larger boats . they loved their rival 36s and would have preferred to stay with the same builder if only he had something larger . they took one look at my sketch and they had the answer . they dragged me and my sketch over to the rival stand and introduced me to charles maunder , the managing director of rival yachts . they said in unison
charles , if you build this design and add it to your line , we ' ll both order one .
what’s she like to sail ? the bowman 40 is a medium - to - heavy displacement yacht designed to sail across open oceans with ease . she is deep - bilged with an overhanging bow and narrowish shoulders , so her motion through the water is that of a powerful , but sea - kindly performer . this easy motion means life at sea on a long passage is not only possible , but positively enjoyable . on many boats , you can get utterly fed up with being thrown about down below for days on end , but that’s certainly not the case with the bowman . there’s always a handhold within reach , both below and above decks , and there are very few sharp edges to hurt yourself on . equally important is the general balance of the hull and sail plan . with her ample ballast , plus the engine weight over the keel and water tanks each side , she’s stiff and easily capable of standing up to her canvas . her steering is light , but positive and she tracks well thanks to her longish keel and skeg . the cutter rig keeps the sails small and offers greater flexibility in a gale , and the quality of the deck gear and fitting gives you confidence that she won’t fall apart when confronted with stormy conditions . she’s no racer , but neither is she a slouch , with her momentum and ability to carve through heavy seas , often she’ll arrive at a far destination at the same time as a much lighter performance yacht might , only her crew will be far more relaxed !
freebie , a 2007 viking yachts 64 ' convertible , is a highly customized 64’ viking with the preferred four cabin , three head layout . freebie is currently located in fort lauderdale , florida and listed with hmy yacht sales professional jeff creary . powered with upgraded mtu 16v2000 2030 hp engines . this vessel has been meticulously maintained by a full time captain . once you have left the teak cockpit that features mezzanine seating , access to the cabin is by way of a starboard located electric sliding door . the salon features a large sofa to port , and a teak credenza to starboard . the galley is to port with the dinette opposite of it to starboard . proceeding forward and down several steps there is a guest stateroom to starboard that is arranged with side by side beds and private access to the guest head which also has companionway access . the master is located on the port side of the companionway and has its own private head . a second guest stateroom is located on the starboard side of the companionway just forward of the laundry center . the fourth and final stateroom is forward and has an island bed and private head as well . freebie ' s asking price is $ 1 , 795 , 000 . to schedule an appointment to view freebie or for more photos and information , please click here .

mo cuisle

what’s she like in port and at anchor ? those more used to voluminous saloons and huge double berths might think the bowman a little cramped , but to my mind and in the option of many long - distance blue water cruising yachtsmen , too much space can be undesirable under way . her shoal draught is a boon upriver and at anchor , and she’ll dry out easily alongside a wall on her long keel base , but she does lack family living space and her cockpit isn’t exactly designed for easy mediterranean lounging . you need a ladder to climb up her transom and there’s no platform for showering after a swim . on the entertaining stakes she easily matches a more modern design . with her massive and extensively equipped galley and large saloon table you can easily cook dinner for six adults . sleeping is limited to two cabins and the saloon , but in return for the lack of a second aft cabin you get a much larger heads , a useful wet locker and a full - depth cockpit locker – far more important for blue water cruising unless you’re taking a large family with you .
the first bowman 40 was introduced at the london boat show a year later . i had already seen it earlier that fall , when i flew over for sea trials . they had that first boat in the water and the first thing charles said was
it floats 2 inches deeper than you said it would .
i said
it can ' t possibly
but i took the freeboards and he was right . i had done all my laborious calculations using a visicalc estimate in excruciating detail - how could it possibly be that much heavier ? they explained that of course they could not build the boat to the scantlings i had shown on my american style construction plans .
we can ' t build boats as lightly as your drawings showed - to sell boats on britain we have to use lloyds scantlings
and that was the answer . lloyds scantlings assumed the use of more fibreglass mat and less woven roving than we were used to using in america . and since mat is weaker than roving , you have to use more of it to achieve adequate strength . i even considered making some concession to charles on the royalty to compensate for my failure to estimate the weight correctly but fortunately i held my tongue .

a blog about our life and times aboard the yacht
wild bird
. we set off from plymouth in may 2009 , and are now in the med , exploring how to live life in a different way . as nelson mandela says . . . .
there is no passion to be found playing small . . . in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living
.
the headless way try out these exercises . . it may change your life . . .
cooking with kurma kurma ' s blog - inspiring me with interesting vegetarian recipes . combined with some spiritual stuff . his website urltoken also worth a browse .
wonderful artist , book illustrator & inspiration jackie morris web site and blog . . hopefully one day i will aspire to painting something like this
this blog describes the journeys of the yacht
wild bird of fowey
and her partners in crime - me ( the wild bird carol ) , my dog skye and fellow travellers who join me on the way .
june 2010 : susie and i sailed down from england via france , northern spain , portugal , southern spain , and across to the balearics . i ' m about to set off for sardinia , sicily and greece - a summer of cruising with my new crewmate , sylvia .
part of my journey is to develop my artist - self . i aim to spend time recording my journeys in watercolours , paintings , photography and other media , as well as offer my artistic services to others we meet on our journeys .
i ' ve recently been described as an
educated woman from north of watford gap
and that probably is a good one sentence summary .
i originate from lancashire in the uk and that ' s where i ' ll go back to when this journey is over ( or that ' s the plan ) . . but that ' s along way off . my past career includes things as diverse as working for the uk space programme ; directing biotechnology research ; being a ceo in venture capital , being a finance director , being a trainee integrated arts psychotherapist and serving burgers on helen browning ' s flying pig !
apart from the sundry science and management degrees i ' ve picked up along the way , i also have a strong interest in the arts and personal development and have trained as an integrated arts psychotherapist ( but not practising ) and done all sorts of other
alternative
things such as drama therapy , mask work , and puppetry ; workshops with marion woodman ; drumming , 5 rythms workshops , voicework ( jill purce , frankie armstrong etc ) and some basic shamanic work as well of course as various alternative holidays in skyros and cortijo romero . i ' m currently exploring both yoga and tantra .
apart from the general image of a wild bird soaring free in the sky , i ' m also inspired by reading clarissa pinkola estes . . .
within every woman there is a wild and natural creature , a powerful force , filled with good instincts , passionate creativity , and ageless knowing . her name is wild woman , but she is an endangered species . though the gifts of the wildish nature come to us at birth , society ' s attempt to
civilize
us into rigid roles has plundered this treasure , and muffled the deep , life - giving messages of our own souls . without wild woman , we become over - domesticated , fearful , uncreative , trapped .

the history of the 40 , 42 , 45 and 48 seem well documented , but the 36 , 44 ' corsair ' , 46 , etc are a bit unknown . . any info would be gratefully received . the 44 , is just a glorious looking boat , but there is little written about it .
i love the 44 corsair - stunning craft . there ' s an amazing one for sale in the netherlands currently . and then there ' s the 57 which is just beautiful beyond words . . . .
that corsair is stunning but you shouldn ' t be looking at other boats after your refit , well not just yet .

my husband , alex , and i intended to be cruising the world for some time , with no particular plan to circumnavigate , and we had a pretty reasonable set of criteria for the vessel that would help us get there . the boat had to be sturdy , capable of handling heavy seas and possible collisions with floating objects , and manageable for each of us alone . it had to be comfortable under way and at anchor , and it had to be pretty . we expected to sail doublehanded for the most part , so we wanted a split rig .
she ' s a
boat - shaped boat
with beautiful lines , a delicate transom , and a wave - splitting bow . drawing more than 8 feet , she ' s not about to go gunkholing , but she ' ll certainly handle a sea well . her skeg - hung rudder is protected behind a substantial fin keel onto which the mast is stepped . the hull is solid fiberglass - no balsa core to rot , no foam core to get soggy or crack . if she hits something solid , she ' s likely to bounce .
the navigation station , to port at the foot of the companionway , has a nicely sized chart table . adjacent to it is an office , with full - size drawers for paper charts , a desk for a computer , an office chair , cabinets , and more . the aft cabin has a single berth to starboard and a double to port with cushions between , both good sea berths . it doesn ' t have enough storage space , but it could be easily modified . an adjoining head has a shower , a full - size toilet , and a porcelain sink .
the well - ventilated saloon seats six around the table using only the u - shaped settee , eight with chairs added at the end , and three more on the port settee . forward are two cabins with two bunk berths each and another head and shower . in the forepeak is a workshop complete with workbench , vise , and cabinets .
ketch rigged and with double headsails , the 57 can take on sail in small enough doses for each of us to be able to handle them . aleria behaves like the big boat she is , responding more slowly to the helm than what we were used to . my first turn at the wheel was intimidating , but i took comfort in the feeling from the center cockpit that following seas were a long way
back there .
once under way , balanced and in the groove , she sails like a freight train .
