Sailing Camp for Kids!

Want a smart, safe and F-U-N summer activity for the kids? How about Sailing Camp? Help them enjoy Lake Travis to the fullest!

The Austin Yacht Club has classes throughout the summer. Check their website for full details on dates, times, cost, etc. KXAN recently ran an article about the Sailing Camp – you can read all about it below. To view the KXAN video on the Sailing Camp, Click Here!


Summer is around the corner, and if your kid loves the water, there is a camp for them. The Austin Yacht Club offers a sailing camp on Lake Travis. Kids can learn how to rig a boat and set sail.

"They learn how to be comfortable and safe on a boat, and eventually, we'd like to see them out participating in some of the races that we hold out here," said Kelly Hawk, sailing camp director with the Austin Yacht Club.

The camp offers all types of boats from small Opties to FJs to learn on.

"We do a capsize drill first so they know what it feels like to tip over, and then they learn how to right the boat," said Hawk.

During the weeklong camp, you can even take up windsurfing.

"They're usually able to sail in one day on the windsurfers," said Hawk.

Since the yacht club is located in a cove, you don't have a lot of boat traffic getting in your way.

"We have our own fleet of coach boats, and the coaches are around the children, and we have an area where we sail that we don't really see a lot of motor traffic," said Hawk.You just have a lot of fun learning how to sail.

If you would like to check out the Austin Yacht Club's summer camp, it's open to kids 8 to 16 years old, and the cost is $400 a week.

Buba Dives Specializes in Scuba Diving Trips on Lake Travis!


If you love to dive, check out this new business that just started up last November, 2006. It’s called Buba Dives, and they offer a safe alternative to shore diving, providing divers the ability to dive numerous locations not accessible from shore. The owner, who is semi-retired, says he created the company for the sheer love of diving; everyone at Buba Dives loves the atmosphere and especially the people in the diving community! That’s a great combination for success – if you love what you do, you do it with passion and have fun with it - I know I do!  ...Mick
 

At Buba Dives, all their business decisions are based on their philosophy of “Safety first and fun second!” You still have lots of fun – the smart way. Buba Dives says they feel the diving they provide is the safest way to dive on the lake. With a large dive vessel as a platform for your dives you have an experienced Captain / Diver watching from above the entire dive. They operate off of a 30 foot custom pontoon boat located at Keller Marina, taking up to 6 paying customers at a time. We will take our customers to any location on Lake Travis they want to dive as long as their previous dive experience allows for safe diving in that location. We also have a vast knowledge of the lake and can make recommendations based on skill level. We cater to all levels of divers from just open water to certified to technical divers – we go out of our way to cater to the needs of our customers.

Buba Dives does not provide any gear so you will need to bring your own or rent your gear from a local dive shop including your tanks. Buba Dives works with all local dive shops. Contact Buba Dives either by phone at (512) 809-3925 or by email at bubadives@yahoo.com and schedule your dive for the day and time that you want. Hurry! Their trips fill up quick and they operate on a first come, first served basis, so contact them as soon as possible. Have fun!

Real Estate Tips
About Appraisals >Working With A Real Estate Agent

It is not unusual for homeowners to yield to the temptation to try to sell their own home. It seems easy enough--just place an ad in the weekend paper and wait for buyers to show up. Although it may seem simple, real estate sales transactions are extremely complex proceedings.

The first pitfall can come with pricing your property realistically. Homeowners often price their property too high initially, then drastically slash the price when weeks go buy without an offer. Even if a prospective buyer agrees to the initial asking price, there could be complications if the buyers begin to feel that they have agreed to pay too much, or if the lender's appraisal values the property at far less than the agreed-upon price. Some clients hire agents to market their home professionally after weeks or months of trying to sell their own home without success, or after their FSBO transaction fell through.
