The "Questions For Fun" Thread.

Fair enough, I was useing the largest private sailing yacht, where is this one, and where was she launched? Then you win!

Also, answer for largest private, for extra bonus points


EDIT: Just had a thought, I dont know whether the data for where the 5 master is at the moment is avalable on the internet.
What do we do if no on can work it out? Do we just modify my question to the larges PRIVATE sailing yacht?

If its for private, your wrong...

Design: No idea. F 5 probably?
Countries:
USA (Introduced before I was born, went out of service 2006 (?))
Iran (See above but still in service)
Who else?

I would recon canada might have had some.

Blue Sky Mine, what are the questions like?

Also, because I dont think anyone will get it, the Largest private Sailing Yacht is the EOS, which is LOA - 304.86-ft. Launched in Germany from the Lürssen yard.
Largest sailing boat commercial is the Royal Clipper - Registerd Luxemburg, no idea where launched, no idea where she is now.

Blue Sky Mine, what are the questions like?

Ok, there are 300 questions (the British test only has like 140) and a very good example is this one:

Q: What vessels are required to carry a radio?

A: All ships required to do so by the German naval safety laws.

Got the idea about why I think our burocracy is crap?

Dont forget sailing dinghys, last I checked, they never need radio, regardless of country.

But are all the other qs that easy?

No. You have to know loads of ridicoulus shortenings (the meanings of those you have to know by heart). And you can say that all 150 or so questions the Germans have added are completely irrelevant bull*vegetable*.

Thanx! Actually I was born in Australia (and spent half a year there as an exchange student), so it's a little easier for me

The Royal Clipper was built from a hull of some cruise liner in Russia i think. She was built in Gdansk, Poland. She was in the carribean on Feb 23rd, so i assume she'll be there now as well.

F-14:
Was it developed from the F-111?
Service in
USA:1972-October 2006
Iran:1976-now

[RMAirlines]

100% right.
