With such a low freeboard it must be wet going up wind in a blow.

Yes, but made up for by the legendary seakindliness of the design.

These yacht/submarine hybrids can just duck for cover when it gets rough. It's a nifty idea.

Optimistically positioned wet vac on the coach roof...!

Surprising how many sunken boats there are on the Vilaine (or under it!)

Years ago I used the Brittany canal as a short cut and then came out at Arzal . Seemed quite exposed lower down in a Sw . Drawing only a couple of feet i could tuck right up on the edges but you could ‘ see ‘ weedy outlines of old stuff !

You're a cruel bunch. Someone's lost his pride and joy, and all you can do is take the piss.

Yes, there are some humorous things about the pic, but that boat is clearly not a neglected wreck - well, it's a wreck now, but it wasn't before it sank.

Unless, of course, the owner knew something we don't and is looking at a useful insurance claim

Well, somebody neglected something otherwise she wouldn't have sunk ?

Interesting choice of anchor; never thought of using the keel before...

Not sure it will catch on.
