He's the author of the book, "17 Games You Can Play Right Now," has been a featured speaker at the American International Toy Fair, and is the former Vice President of the Strategy Gaming Society.

Yacht is the public domain dice game upon which the published games Yahtzee and Kismet are both based. Here's how to play.

The Basics of Yacht

1 or more players. Best with 2 to 5 players.

5 six-sided dice , along with pencil and paper to keep score.

To score more points than your opponents by rolling certain combinations of numbers.

Create a score sheet with 12 rows and a column for each player. Label the rows as follows:

  • Large Straight
  • Small Straight
  • Four of a Kind
  • Player's Choice

Definitions

  • Yacht: Five of the same number (e.g. 4-4-4-4-4).
  • Large Straight: Five in a row starting with 6 (i.e. 6-5-4-3-2).
  • Small Straight: Five in a row starting with 5 (i.e. 5-4-3-2-1).
  • Four of a Kind: Four of the same number (e.g. 5-4-4-4-4).
  • Full House: Three of one number, two of a different number (e.g. 4-4-4-1-1).
  • Player's Choice: Any combination of dice.
  • Sixes: Only sixes count for scoring.
  • Fives: Only fives count for scoring.
  • Fours: Only fours count for scoring.
  • Threes: Only threes count for scoring.
  • Twos: Only twos count for scoring.
  • Ones: Only ones count for scoring.

How to Play

A turn starts with a player rolling all five dice. The player may then set aside any number of dice, rerolling the others, or he may stop rolling and proceed to scoring. It is legal for a player to reroll all five dice. It is also legal to reroll dice previously set aside.

On each turn, a player has a maximum of three rolls. After a third roll, the player must stop rolling and proceed to scoring.

Each player will have 12 turns during the game. After each turn, the player must enter a score in one of the rows on the score sheet.

Example: Ana rolls a 1-2-2-4-6. For her second roll, she decides to keep the 2s and reroll the other three dice. She rolls 4-4-6, so she now has 2-2-4-4-6. She has already scored a Full House, so for her third roll, she decides to keep the 4s and reroll the other three dice. She rolls 1-4-4 and now has 1-4-4-4-4. She decides to score for Four of a Kind.

It is likely that a player will make a roll that does not qualify to earn points in any of the remaining categories. In this case, the player must mark a "0" in one of the available categories.

Yacht Scoring and Values

  • Yacht: 50 points. (It does not matter what numbers are on the dice.)
  • Large Straight: 30 points.
  • Small Straight: 30 points.
  • Four of a Kind: Up to 30 points. (Add the point values on all five dice, so 4-4-4-4-1 would score 17 points. It is legal to use five of a kind for this category, so 6-6-6-6-6 would score 30 points.)
  • Full House: Up to 28 points. (Add the point values on all five dice, so 3-3-3-6-6 would score 21 points. To earn points for a full house, the three of a kind must be different than the pair.)
  • Player's Choice: Up to 30 points. (This serves as a "wild card." Simply add the point values on all five dice.)
  • Sixes: Up to 30 points. (Add the point values of all sixes rolled.)
  • Fives: Up to 25 points. (Add the point values of all fives rolled.)
  • Fours: Up to 20 points. (Add the point values of all fours rolled.)
  • Threes: Up to 15 points. (Add the point values of all threes rolled.)
  • Twos: Up to 10 points. (Add the point values of all twos rolled.)
  • Ones: Up to 5 points. (Add the point values of all ones rolled.)

Winning Yacht

After every player has scored in each category, the players each total their scores. The player with the highest score wins.

Rules, instructions & winning strategies, a guide to yacht, the classic dice game: rules, instructions & strategy guide, introduction.

Yacht is a dice game where your aim is rolling the right combinations and racking up points. It’s similar to games like Yahtzee , which I’ve written about before, but it’s got its own unique twist and a different scoresheet. The game was first invented in the mid 20th century, and it’s been mildly popular with families and friends since then.

what is a yacht in dice game

It’s a mix of luck and strategy, so while you can’t control the dice, you can make smart moves to up your chances of winning which I’ll dive in to below.

  • Quick Tip for Yacht

Always keep an eye on your score sheet and aim for the combos that are still open, especially the ones with higher points.

  • Rules for playing Yacht

Alright, let’s get into the nitty-gritty of Yacht rules. The game is played with five dice, and each player gets three rolls per turn. You can keep some dice and re-roll others to get the combos you need. There’s a score sheet with different categories, and you’ve got to fill each one with your dice rolls. Some categories are just about adding up the dice, while others need specific combos like a full house or a straight. You’ve got to fill in a score for each category, even if it’s a zero. Once all the categories are filled, the game ends, and the player with the highest score wins.

  • Equipment and Setup for Yacht

For Yacht, you need five dice and a score sheet for each player. You can find these online or make your own. To set up, each player gets a score sheet, and you decide who goes first. That’s it, you’re ready to roll!

  • How to Play Yacht

Playing Yacht is pretty straightforward. Here’s the breakdown:

  • Key Game Mechanics: Roll the dice, keep what you need, and re-roll the rest. Aim for high-scoring combos.
  • Setup: Each player gets a score sheet. Decide who starts.
  • Gameplay: On your turn, roll all five dice. After the first roll, set aside any dice you want to keep and re-roll the rest. You can do this twice more. Then, choose a category on your score sheet and write down your score.
  • End of the Game: Once all categories are filled, add up your points. The highest score wins.
  • How to Win at Yacht

To win at Yacht, you need a mix of luck and strategy. Keep an eye on your score sheet and go for the high-scoring categories when you can. Sometimes it’s worth taking a zero in a lower category to save a good roll for a higher one. And remember, some categories can score you a lot of points, so aim for those when the dice are in your favor.

  • Best Strategies for playing Yacht game

For the best strategies, think ahead. Plan your rolls around what you need to fill in on your score sheet. If you’re aiming for a full house and you roll two pairs, it might be worth it to re-roll one of the pairs to try for that third matching die. And don’t forget about the Yacht itself – that’s five of a kind and scores you the most points. It’s rare, but if you’ve got a shot at it, go for it!

There are a few variations of Yacht that can mix things up. Some people play with different scoring rules or add in wild dice that can be any number. Feel free to get creative and make your own house rules !

Sometimes you’ll find yourself in a tough spot, like needing a specific roll to fill in your last category. In those cases, focus on the dice you need and keep re-rolling for them. And if you’re ahead, play it safe and fill in the easy categories to secure your lead.

  • Frequently Asked Questions about playing Yacht game
  • Q: Can I change my score once I’ve written it down? A: Nope, once you’ve chosen a category and written a score, it’s final.
  • Q: What if I roll a Yacht but already filled that category? A: Tough luck! You’ll have to use it in another category, so choose wisely.
  • Q: Can I play Yacht with more than five dice? A: The standard game uses five, but you can try variations with more for a different challenge.

Each player in turn tries to score the highest possible amount for each of the twelve categories on the score sheet.  In each turn a player has up to three throws rolling the dice, setting aside any they wish to use for a category and rolling the remainder.  They do not have to use all three throws and may stop after the first or second.  Players must fill in a score for a category after each turn but once it is used they may not change it.  Categories may be filled in any order.

After each player has had twelve turns and all the categories on the score sheet have been filled, the scores are totalled, and the player with the highest total, wins the game.

1 Ones   Score one point for each 1 thrown. Maximum of 5 points. 2 Twos   Score two points for each 2 thrown. Maximum of 10 points. 3 Threes   Score three points for each 3 thrown. Maximum of 15 points. 4 Fours   Score four points for each 4 thrown. Maximum of 20 points. 5 Fives   Score five points for each 5 thrown. Maximum of 25 points. 6 Sixes   Score six points for each 6 thrown. Maximum of 30 points. 7 Little Straight   1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Scores 30 points. 8 Big Straight   2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Scores 30 points. 9 Full House   Three-of-a-kind and a pair. Scores total value of all dice. 10 Four of a Kind   Scores total value of the four dice. i.e. 6, 6, 6, 6, 2 scores 24 points. 11 Chance   No pattern required. Scores total value of all five dice. 12 Yacht   Five-of-a-kind scores 50 points.

For example a turn might go something like this.  A player rolls all five dice resulting with the numbers 6, 6, 6, 3, 3.  They could score for a full house without any further throws.  But if the full house category is already used they would set aside the three 6s and roll the remaining two dice to try and gain a good score for the sixes category.  The remaining dice are rolled again and come up as a 4 and 6.  The 6 is kept making four-of-a-kind and the remaining die rolled as the last throw. It is a 6 as well making a Yacht (five-of-a-kind) and scores 50 points which ends a very lucky turn.  It is common for a player to enter zero for a category and players often use the 1s for this because it is low scoring.

Variations:

Yahtzee is played as described above but the score sheet is divided into two sections.  1s through to 6s as the first section, and the remaining categories as the second.  At the end of a game you score a bonus of 35 if the 1s to 6s section totals 63 or more.  Additionally the definition of a big straight is any run of five consecutive dice values and a little straight any run of four consecutive dice values.  Players score 40 for a big straight not 30.

General is played as described above for Yacht but with the following differences.

There is only one straight scored in General and can be either 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.  It scores 25 points if made with only one throw and only 20 points if made on the second or third.  For this category Aces (1s) are wild and may represent a 2 or a 6 if either or both are needed to make a straight.

The full house scores 35 points if made with one throw and 30 points if made on the second or third.

Four-of-a-kind scores 45 points if made with one throw and 40 points if made on the second or third.

The Yacht category is know as a general .  If it is made with one throw then it wins the game with no further play and is known as a big general .  If made on the second or third throw it scores 60 points and is known as a small general .

When played for stakes the winner receives the difference between his score and that of each of the other players at a pre-arranged sum for each point.

Double Cameroon is played in much the same way as Yacht but with ten dice.  At the end of a player's turn the dice are divided into two groups of five and are used to score two categories of the player's choice.  Five rounds are played for the ten categories, which are; categories 1 to 6 and a full house score the same as in Yacht .  Little Cameroon (a little straight) scores 21 points.  Big Cameroon (a big straight) scores 30 points.  Five-of-a-kind ( Yacht ) scores 50 points.

Instructions

Yacht is a classic dice-rolling game that inspired the hit game Yahtzee by Milton Bradley. Play online against random opponents, create a game with your friends, or practice against the computer.

In Yacht, you need to make specific combinations that score the most points possible at the end of three rolls. At the end of the game, whoever has the most points wins. 

Every turn, you have three dice rolls. After your first roll, you can choose to hold dice. The dice you hold will not be part of your next roll. After three rolls, pick a category on the scorecard to lock in your points. If you aren't sure what each category means, tap on the name to get more details.

HINT: If you score 63 or more points in the upper section of the scorecard, you'll earn a 35-point bonus.

You can either play this game against a computer, or play online and go head-to-head against players anywhere in the world. Either way, you can expect to have a fun and exciting challenge.

Probably the biggest factor in this dice game is whether or not you are able to get the 35-point bonus. Because of this, you should try and focus on the upper section in order to work toward that bonus. 

Make sure to keep your chance section clear for as long as you can. It is nice to have a safety net that can catch you if you have a bad roll. 

Every turn, you have three dice rolls. After your first roll, you can choose to hold dice. The dice you hold will not be part of your next roll. After three rolls, pick a category on the scorecard to lock in your points. If you aren't sure what each category means, mouse over the name to get more details.

Is Yahtzee similar to the Yacht Dice Game?

Besides a few small rule changes, Yahtzee and Yacht are very similar games. If you have a decent understanding of the game Yahtzee, then learning how to play Yacht will be no problem at all.

Yacht - dice game

Yacht is a public domain dice game, similar to the Latin American game Generala , the English game of Poker Dice, the Scandinavian Yatzy , and Cheerio. Yahtzee (trademarked in the United States by Hasbro) is a later development, similar to Yacht in both name and content.

The name Yacht is also used for a number of later dice games that include many features of Yahtzee, being closer to Yahtzee than the original Yacht game.

The object of the game is to score points by rolling five dice to make certain combinations. The dice can be rolled up to three times in a turn to try to make these combinations. A game consists of twelve rounds. After each round the player chooses which scoring category is to be used for that round. Once a category has been used in the game, it cannot be used again. The scoring categories have varying point values, some of which are fixed values and others where the score depends on the value of the dice. A Yacht is five-of-a-kind and scores 50 points; the highest of any category. The winner is the player who scores most points.

The following are the 12 categories and the points scored in those categories:

If a category is chosen but the dice do not match the requirements of the category the player scores 0 in that category.

A Yacht cannot be scored on Full House but can be scored on Four of a Kind, although the fifth dice is not counted in the score. The score for the Straights vary, but 30 is a typical score for each.

The maximum possible score depends on the scoring rules used but with the above rules and both straights counting 30, the maximum score is 297.

Score sheet

Comparison with yahtzee.

The rules of Yacht differ from those of Yahtzee in a number of ways:

  • It does not have an upper section bonus.
  • There is no three-of-a-kind category.
  • Both straights are a sequence of five ("Large Straight" is 2-3-4-5-6, "Small Straight" is 1-2-3-4-5).
  • There are no Yahtzee bonuses or Joker rule

There are a number of differences to the category names compared to Yahtzee. "Aces" is often called "Ones", "Small Straight" is called "Little Straight", "Large Straight" is called "Big Straight", "Yahtzee" is called "Yacht" and "Chance" is called "Choice". The order of the categories on the score sheet can also be different to that used on a Yahtzee score sheet. There is no "upper" or "lower" section scoring, just a "Total" row at the bottom of the score sheet.

Although there are no official rules for Yacht, the scoring of some categories generally differs from that used in Yahtzee. Four-of-a-kind scores the sum of those four dice, not all five dice. Full house scores the sum of the five dice, not a fixed score of 25. The scores for the straights can be different to that used in Yahtzee.

Yacht dice game is predecessor of Yahtzee and is contemporary of another sequence dice-casting game Crag . Yacht is in public domain and similar to games such as Poker Dice , Yatzy etc.

The objective of the game is to score points by rolling 5 six-sided dice and making certain combinations.

5 six-sided dice and a scoresheet.

Yacht Dice Game Play :

In each round all players take turn to roll 5 dice up to a maximum of 3 times. After each roll player can set aside one or more dice and then roll remaining dice. Dice which were set aside in initial rolls can be rolled again in later rolls. The game has 12 categories to score. Each category belongs to a unique combination and can be scored only once. There is no sequence in which a category is to be scored.

Following are the categories available in Yacht dice game, its scoring rules and description

Player can choose a category to play even if he/she scores zero in it according to the scoring rules. Sometimes it is more beneficial to score in low scoring categories such as ones or twos and try high scoring categories again in later turns if it is not achieved.

Some combinations can be played in multiple categories. For example, if all five dice are showing same number, it can be scored in Four of a kind, or Full house, or Yacht.

Once all categories are played, the player with highest points wins.

How to Play Dice: Yacht / Yatzy Rules of Play

In this post, we'll share how to play one of our favorite dice games using 5 dice, which is included in our portable pocket-size Travel Dice design: Yacht (aka Generala, Yatzy, Poker Dice, Cheerio), which is the original public domain version of the game that is packaged by Milton-Bradley as the trademarked Yahtzee®. Yacht can be played with any number of players (2+) and all you need is dice, scoresheets, and a pen. These are the complete rules of play, plus a free printable Yacht scoresheet .

what is a yacht in dice game

How to Play Yacht

Although it has many names and some variations, this is the basic version of the game that we play, taken from the official source, Hoyle's Rules of Games . There are some slight scoring differences from the trademark Yahtzee® game but we actually enjoy this way more. See more complete rules on the Wikipedia page for Yacht .

Object of the Game

Score the most points after 12 rounds of game play.

  • Gather a scoresheet for each player and 5 dice. The game consists of 12 rounds, and each player one turn within each round. Each turn consists of up to 3 rolls of the dice. The object of a turn is to designate dice to count in one of the 12 categories shown on the scoresheet (more on that below).
  • At the beginning of each turn, the player throws all 5 dice. The player sets aside any of the dice they wish to designate to a scoring category, and rolls the rest of the dice again. Same with the second roll. The player may "stay" at any time and is not required to roll all 3 times. After the third roll or "stay", the player must select a category on the scoresheet and enter the chosen score (which may be zero) under their name's column.
  • No category may be used more than once in the course of the game.
  • When every player has had 12 turns, the scores on the scoresheet are tallied and the highest score wins.

The scoring is as follows, with a maximum achievable score:

If you are looking for a game requiring little skill and a good deal of luck, then this may be the game for you. Yacht is a very simple game which uses nothing more than 5 dice, a cup to shake them in, and a score sheet. Despite its simplicity, the “high” of getting spectacular rolls of the dice is palpable. The skill of the game comes entirely in the form of decision making. The decisions one must make involve taking calculated risks, and knowing how to score your rolls.

Number of Players

As few as 2 and as many as you like.

5 six-sided dice (with optional dice cup), 1 specially prepared score sheet per player.

Download a score sheet. (If you do not have Adobe Acrobat Reader, download it for free here .)

Each player rolls to determine who plays first (high roll wins), and play proceeds to the left. A player starts their turn by first rolling all 5 dice. They are allowed up to 2 more rolls (for a maximum of 3 rolls per turn). Each time a player rolls, they may choose to hold (or set aside) as many of the dice as they wish, and re-roll the remaining dice in an attempt to achieve certain goals as outlined by the score sheet. At any time during a players turn, they may stop rolling and use what is showing on all 5 dice to fill in a spot on their score sheet.

Once a spot has been filled in on the score sheet, it can not be changed.

Score Sheet

Each player has their own individual sheet prepared with a series of categories divided into two sections (an “upper” and a “lower”). Each category represents a specific combination of dice, and should have a space next to it to fill in the score for that category. The categories are:

Upper Section

  • Upper Section Bonus (35 pts. If upper section total = 63 or higher)

Lower Section

  • 3 of a kind (total of all 5 dice)
  • 4 of a kind (total of all 5 dice)
  • Full house (25 points)
  • Small straight (30 points)
  • Large straight (40 points)
  • Yacht (50 pts.)
  • Chance (total of all 5 dice)
  • Bonus for additional Yachts (100 pts. per additional Yacht)

There should also be room at the bottom of the sheet to fill in the totals for both sections and add them together for a final total. At the end of a players turn, the player MUST write down a score next to one of the categories. The player may choose to fill in any category that has not been previously filled in (in either section), but their final combination of dice must meet the requirements for whatever category they select (other wise, they must fill in a 0 for that category).

For the upper section, each category simply represents the specific numbers rolled on the dice. To take a score in the upper section, merely write down the total of all numbers you rolled that correspond to the specific category. For example, if you roll three 1s, a 2, and a 4, you may total the 1s for a score of “3” in the 1s category (for the sake of argument, you could also take a score of “2” in 2s, or “9” in Three of a Kind, etc). The upper section bonus of 35 points is achieved if the combined total of all numbers scored in the upper section equal 63 points or more. A good thing to keep in mind when trying for this bonus is that scoring exactly 3 of each number (i.e. three 1s, three 2s, etc.), gives you exactly 63 points.

For the lower section, the roll requirements are more specific. For 3 of a kind, and 4 of a kind you must obviously have either 3 of one number or 4 of one number showing on the dice. If you have met this requirement, you may total ALL numbers on the dice and write the total in the appropriate category. For “chance,” there is no specific requirement to meet; you merely total all the dice. All other lower section categories have specific point values assigned to them. You may write down the point value for each of these categories upon achieving their roll requirements. Those requirements are:

  • Full house – dice show 3 of one number and 2 of another number (25 points)
  • Small straight – 4 of the 5 dice are in sequence (example: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6). (30 points)
  • Large straight – all 5 dice are in sequence (example: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5). (40 points)
  • Yacht – all 5 dice show the same number (50 points)

You will notice while playing, that certain rolls can be taken in a variety of categories (for example a roll of 4, 4, 4, 6, 6, can be scored as 4’s, 6’s, 3 of a kind, Full house, or Chance…or, you can take a “0” anywhere else). In these situations, it is up to you to decide where to write down a score. In the event that your final roll of the dice on your turn produces a roll that does not meet ANY requirements on the score sheet, then a score of “0” must be taken in the open category of your choosing.

Bonus Yachts

If you have already filled in the yacht category (with either 50 points or zero), and you roll a yacht…that yacht may be used as a “wildcard” anywhere else on the sheet (for example: it may be used as a full house, small straight, etc.). Also, if you have already scored 50 points in the yacht category, each additional yacht rolled is worth a bonus of 100 points (in addition to whatever the subsequent yachts are scored as).

When every category on every player’s score sheet has been filled in, the game is over. Each player then totals all of the values from each and every category on the sheet (remembering to include any bonuses). The player with the highest total score is the winner.

Yacht (Dice Game)

Try to score the highest amount you can.

You can roll the dice up to three times (and can hold dice by clicking on them).

After any Roll (1, 2 or 3) choose a category to place the total. Choose Wisely! You must choose a category by the third roll, even if it is a 0 score.

There are many games like this, such as Yot , Generala , Cheerio , and the much later commercially available Yahtzee (trademarked by Hasbro).

Spades

Yacht is a classic dice game, dating back from 1938. The game is the predecessor of Yahtzee and has a lot of similarities to the Latin-American Generala, the Scandinavian Yatzy and the English game of Poker Dice. In this game, you have got 6 dice and the goal is to throw as much special combinations as possible. A turn starts with the first throw. After this throw you can choose which dice you want to lock for your combination, and you can throw the other dice for a second time. From this throw you can again lock some dice and then you can make a final throw. After this throw you can choose which combination you get in the scorecard.

Try to go for the higher combinations first. If you don't have a good combination at the end of your turn, make sure to put it on the lower combinations as they are worth less points.

How to play:

Use you mouse/finger and follow the instructions on the screen.

About the creator:

Yacht was created by Codethislab. They are well known for all their classic games on Poki, like Uno Online, Foosball and Master Checkers.

Yahtzee History

From Yahtzee’s humble beginnings in the distant past to its evolution into a household favorite, its history is as intriguing as the game itself. The Yahtzee Manifesto is dedicated to studying the rich history of Yahtzee. Join us on a fascinating tour, exploring the game's origins, its rise to popularity, and its enduring appeal.

Ancient Mayan Yahtzee shaker

When did Yahtzee come out? Modern Yahtzee was commercially released in 1956 by the E.S. Lowe Company. But the game's origins go back much further, with roots in ancient dice games that were played thousands of years ago. Since then, manufacturers have continued to release updated and redesigned versions.

But throughout its history, the spirit of Yahtzee remains constant. It's a game that's easy to learn, yet challenging to master. And that's why it's still one of the most popular dice games in the world. Behold the marvel of Yahtzee history through the ages!

Yahtzee history infographic - the history of Yahtzee

in Ancient Times

Dice have been used for millennia as a means of recreation and gambling. They were the world’s first random number generators, paving the way for the introduction of games of chance. Who invented Yahtzee? The answer isn't clear. Examples of ancient dice games show up in the historical record from civilizations all around the world, including Egypt, Iran, and India. The invention of dice games led to a golden age in human advancement, spurring on the development of mathematical concepts like probability and game theory.

The use of dice predates recorded history so their precise origins are difficult to pin down. Archaeological evidence suggests that the six-faced cubes we know today were hand-crafted upgrades to a natural source of proto-dice gamepieces: the knucklebones of sheep or goats. Prehistoric peoples took advantage of the shape of the animals’ astragalus – one of the bones that make up the ankle joint – to generate random numbers for fun and profit. The bones could only land on one of four sides, and these were often marked with numbers just like modern dice.

Throwing knucklebones may have started as a fortune-telling method, as many early societies saw great power in the chance occurrences created by dice. But over time gameplay became their most popular use. Most of these ancient games have been lost to time but a rare few survive and continue to be played in some form still today. For example, the Roman game Tali , which could be played with either knucklebones or true dice, can be considered an early ancestor of Yahtzee.

and its Modern Origins

Yahtzee’s modern day resurrection is thanks to two independent events in the 1940s. The Leister Game Company in Toledo, Ohio saw board gaming's popularity rise during World War Two as fuel shortages and financial belt-tightening prompted families to spend more time at home. As the company noted:

“Now that gas rationing has ushered in a back-to-the-home movement, material for home entertainment and for those informal occasions when neighbors and friends drop in is in great demand.”

Among the many games and novelties that Leister produced during this era was “ Yatzie ”, released in 1943. While not quite the game that we know today, “Yatzie” was a precursor that was included in a boxed set called “ Luck – 15 Grand Dice Games ”. It would be familiar to a modern Yahtzee player as there are only a few minor differences in the rules and scoring combinations. Yatzie did not have a Three-of-a-Kind, for instance, and both Straights required five sequential dice.

“Luck”, distributed by Toledo’s National Association Service became a regional success, but the other games in the set did not manage to form a lasting impression on the gaming public. Dice games such as “ Floradora Sextette ”, “ Black Cat ”, and “ Help Your Neighbor ” have been mostly been confined to the dust bin of history.

1943 Luck - 15 Grand Dice Games Box

The second major contribution to modern Yahtzee was due to a wealthy Canadian couple who rediscovered the games ancient origins while on a tour of Tibet in the early twentieth century. They were immediately won over by the game’s complex simplicity and began playing it regularly as they cruised around the world on their private yacht. The couple updated the rules and created a more modern type of scorecard, referring to it as the “ Yacht Game ” or “ The Yacht at Sea Game ”, which eventually was corrupted into its current manifestation, “ Yahtzee .”

In 1956 the couple approached an experienced board game maker, Edwin S. Lowe , and a deal was struck to mass-produce the game. They sold the rights for the price of the first one thousand games produced, which were purchased mainly by family and friends who had grown to love Yahtzee from their visits to the yacht.

Lowe had experienced success as a budding game maker nearly 25 years earlier with his invention of the classic “ Bingo ”. Building on his early success, the E.S. Lowe Company moved into the plastic chess and checkers market where it earned even more. By the time he was introduced to Yahtzee in 1956, he was well-placed to serve as the launching point for a new global phenomenon.

The United States Patent and Trademark Office registered the Yahtzee name on March 19, 1957. It failed to gain much traction with the general public and sold poorly in its first few years on the market. Lowe realized that the game needed to be played to be truly understood and began holding Yahtzee parties throughout North America. The game eventually took off, spread mostly by word of mouth – an early example of a viral sensation.

1956 Yahtzee Box

in the 1970s

By the 1970s the game had become firmly planted in the public consciousness. The Milton Bradley Company bought out the E. S. Lowe Company, including the rights to Yahtzee, in 1973. The acquisition helped Yahtzee’s popularity to soar by introducing the game to more and more markets around the world.

Variation games and spin-offs proliferated during this time as a way to capitalize on Yahtzee’s success. The first Travel Yahtzee set appeared in 1970. Triple Yahtzee soon followed in 1972, Challenge Yahtzee in 1974, and Word Yahtzee in 1978. The ample marketing budget under Milton Bradley allowed Yahtzee to be promoted in new ways. The game landed its first celebrity endorsement when Tony Randall and Jack Klugman from the hit television show " The Odd Couple " appeared on the 1974 Challenge Yahtzee box.

in the 1980s

The consolidation of toy companies continued into the 1980s and peaked when Milton Bradley became a subsidiary of Hasbro in 1984. Yahtzee emerged from the merger unscathed and continued to dominate the board game market. With that success came more expansion. Jackpot Yahtzee was launched in 1980 with Casino Yahtzee to follow in 1986. Neither proved to be very successful in the long run but proved that the the game could still evolve in unexpected ways.

1980 Yahtzee Box

in the 1990s

The decade kicked off with another new variation of the classic game - Showdown Yahtzee in 1991. Licensing deals fueled the expansion by allowing for popular fictional characters to be branded with the game, particularly Yahtzee Jr. But a shift was gradually underway during the 1990s, as the expansion of the personal computer and general decline in the price of consumer electronics pushed Yahtzee into new digital formats. These changes led to the appearance of the first handheld electronic Yahtzee games, desktop computer editions, and online Yahtzee games.

1991 Showdown Yahtzee Box

in the 21st Century

The 21st century has seen the game’s popularity explode with a new generation. Hundreds of electronic and online Yahtzee games have been released with no end in sight. Yet Yahtzee remained true to its roots by offering up new board game variations like Yahtzee Texas Hold'em in 2005, Yahtzee Turbo in 2006, and Power Yahtzee in 2007. Hasbro has released even more branded versions into the Yahtzee world, such as Donkey Kong, Doctor Who, Spider-Man, and the Hobbit special editions. Yahtzee is still a best-seller with over 50 million sets sold worldwide. It has come a long way from its humble origins and continues to thrive even as board games face unprecedented pressures.

82-foot yacht catches fire in Miami

Amanda Batchelor , Digital Executive Producer

MIAMI – City of Miami firefighters extinguished a large blaze that erupted Sunday afternoon aboard an 82-foot yacht.

According to Lt. Pete Sanchez, the department received multiple calls about the fire around 10:50 a.m.

Firefighters responded to Merrill-Stevens Yachts, located at 881 NW 13th Ave., where they found the Vision F2 yacht fully engulfed in flames.

“Firefighters extended hose lines into the covered structure and found multiple yachts in the water near the vessel of origin,” Sanchez said in an email to Local 10 News. “They encountered very low visibility because of the billowing smoke and due to the complexity of the incident a second alarm was requested.” Sanchez said the Hazardous Materials Team and a fireboat conducted a foam operation to extinguish the flames.

He said no one was on board the yacht when the fire erupted.

“Other crews assisted with removing the surrounding yachts out of the area to limit exposure,” Sanchez said. “Within an hour the fire was under control and all exposures were protected from sustaining any damage.”

According to Sanchez, more than 34 units and over 100 firefighters assisted in the operation. He said “the National State Warning Point was notified to conduct an assessment as to what spill off may have occurred into the water.”

The cause of the fire remains under investigation.

Benetti's M/Y Triumph out at sea

When it comes to luxury yachts, Benetti is the leader in the industry. It attracts the very wealthy titans of industry, be they financiers, tech innovators, sports superstars or music and fashion icons, and even fictional action heroes. Think James Bond. Think Beyonce and Jay Z on the Mediterranean, who have chartered Benetti’s mega yacht the Lana replete with helipad, pool, gym, cinema room - a mansion on the high seas. Think footballer Zlatan Ibrahimovic who treated himself to a 34-meter Benetti Oasis 34M model.

Benetti has an incredible nautical history. It continues to be a leader and innovator in the yachting sector 150 years after it was founded in Viareggio, Italy. A new book from Assouline entitled Benetti celebrates the sailing history of the company, filled with lavish photographs that would make even those who are new to the boating world drool and fantasize about owning a mega yacht.

Below Azimut/Benetti Group’s chair Giovanna Vitelli shares some insights on the company, catering to the super rich and the future of luxury yachts.

Benetti's new book celebrates the company's incredible nautical history.

How does the yacht client differ in terms of wants and needs from region to region?

The customization of a Benetti yacht is based on the lifestyle of each individual owner. It reflects the owner’s personality, dreams, and needs, even though there are cultural requests that vary from region to region. For instance, for US owners, a frequent request is a large bar paired with barbecue on the upper deck. Some clients might request extensive wine cellars, while others need a full-on office space to get work done while onboard. A spa, a larger space to store water toys, a gym area, and so on…

Who is the Benetti client? What do they expect from a yacht?

A Benetti client is elegant and sophisticated, most typically a man typically in his fifties. Owners are now trending typically 10 years younger than before. Of course, we are still talking about very wealthy and successful people, but unlike the past, where yacht ownership may have primarily symbolized opulence, today's owner seeks something deeper - a private space for special moments to share with family and friends. A floating home, with all the personal comforts, to enjoy a closer connection with the sea.

Apple s iphone 16 pro design revealed in new leak, charlotte shooting 4 officers killed while serving warrant.

How do you anticipate the rapid advancements in technology given that it takes years to complete a yacht?

By investing. We started investing in technology more than 20 years ago when my father created an internal R&D department aiming to reduce fuel consumption. Since then, the guiding principles of the Group's product philosophy have been innovative exterior and interior design for the creation of a new onboard lifestyle, while reducing CO2 emissions and energy consumption, both of which are consistently reflected in our yachts.

An example of technology applied to design is our innovative OASIS DECK®: two highly engineered lateral wings that can open while at anchor to enlarge the outside area in the stern, creating a "beach area" on the water. This revolutionary system was designed in collaboration with the UK-based RWD studios before COVID, and anticipated the need that arose during the pandemic to connect with nature. The enlarged stern also features an infinity pool seamlessly integrated into the flush deck. We have created a new, informal lifestyle onboard with this transformative design – and the OASIS DECK® has been a big success in terms of sales.

The interiors of the main salon of Benetti Oasis 34M series.

Where do you see the yachting industry heading?

There is a noticeable trend in our industry: a younger clientele compared to just five years ago, with a more conscious approach. Sustainability should no longer be merely a marketing pitch within the industry, and we, as leaders, feel the need to drive this change. Yacht owners are increasingly embracing the concept of mega yachts constructed using durable, sustainable materials, and energy-efficient technologies, resulting in reduced carbon emissions.

The next objective is to further optimize consumption and emissions generated by onboard systems. This subject is especially relevant to larger boats, which spend around 90% of their time at anchor. Benetti has begun to address this by developing the “Zero Emission Hotel Mode” powered by fuel cells and advanced power management systems, including solutions to reduce air conditioning energy consumption by up to 50%.

Additionally, for our use in tests, sea trials, etc, we have turned to HVOlution (Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil), produced by ENI, a biofuel made entirely from renewable raw materials. Our recent tests recorded a reduction in well-to-wake CO2 emissions from 60 to 80%, compared to a yacht of comparable size powered by fossil fuel.

What have been the most out-of-this-world request you’ve ever had for the outfitting of a boat?

We have added things like a wood-burning pizza oven and a flower refrigerator. We’ve done a copy of the Sistine Chapel fresco over the dining table on a Benetti yacht.

How do you marry the tradition and history of Benetti with the increasingly modern world of today?

At Benetti, our goal is to blend our rich heritage with the utmost in design and engineering. Take, for instance, our models like the Motopanfilo 37M, which pay homage to maritime history while adding a touch of modern flair. The traditional 1960s aesthetics are reimagined for a modern lifestyle by renowned talents such as Lazzarini & Pickering. Our collaborations extend beyond the nautical realm to include designers and architects from diverse backgrounds, like Bonetti/Kozerski, whose expertise in luxury brands (such as Donna Karan and Tod's), hospitality, and the new Pace Gallery in New York has been seamlessly applied to Benetti’s OASIS line.
