Not sure I would advertise my boat with this pic.

 

[flaming]

why not? That's a great shot!

If I was on it I'd knock off the 'Y' from the name /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

 

[Whitelighter]

I agree its a great shot, but does it not suggest a hard life?

I don't know about sail boat mind, perhaps its a good thing then.

Name should CHRISTALLMIGHTY.

Great photo though. Was he advertising the recent installation of twin Merscruiser V8 petrols, as bavarias answer to the overpowered McGregors?

No, that's pretty normal. Some of the best shots you see are when the whole boat is out of the water forward of the rudder. This is when sailing is at its wettest and most fun!

It's when you can see the bottom of the keel that it get hairy........... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I knew Bavs were very lightly built but I did not know they could actually take off. Nice piicy tho'. Do they have one of it touching down. I was going to say landing but that would not be quite right.

 

[Twister_Ken]

Wouldn't want to advertise it with a shot of splashdown - I can feel my teeth rattling just thinking about it!

Mind you, looks a lot sillier if you straighten the horizon.

Also, not a good advertisement for rolling reefing genoas ina bit of breeze.

She was sailing along nicely ... that happened as some damm mobo created a load of wash infront if her!! /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

 

[Will_M]

And as it landed, all the cabin doors buckle open, the velcro’d on headlining falls to the floor, draws spill their contents with the hull flex!!!

Great photo though…

How did you straighten the horizon?

I thought the Earth's curvature was pretty fixed.

Marvelous that PhotoShop!

"I say, chappy in the motorboat, is the keel still there?"

 

[Bav34]

Oh God, it's just as bad going the other way !!
