Were you sailing between Gourock and the Cloch yesterday around 1300 when I took these?

Yes Rabbie, I crossed from Holy loch and up river with my mates in their boats following behind, I saw the boat in your last pic cross from ps to sb infront of me, two other boats passed NE TO SW on my ps, one I think was a Hurley 22 the other looked like a H R, ant shortly on the same course a boat with a blue junk or lugger sail, I was solo so only had the genoa 2/3 out and managed 8kts at that stage, then proceded to sail as far as Bowling.
A brilliant sailing day.

Infact it was the boat in the second last pic that passed in front of me.

DRUM as featured in the Duran Duran Vid.... but can't remember which one at the moment... Also was dis masted in the fastnet disaster..
 
The video of "Rio" featured a beautiful classic Fife called Eilean but I don't recall Drum appearing in any of their videos?

I think it was called grey lady of the seas. and it was actually part of a promo vid for the whitbread Round the world..
