Lets see them

Not everyone's cup of tea? What's not to like? She's magnificent!! Here's my own little contribution:

Falmouth Pilot, "Modeste" Out of the water at the moment. She needs some work, mostly aesthetic but she's a great sea boat.
 
So how exactly DO you post a flippin picture then ! /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif


Ok, I have just read the tutorial, but faded about half way....maybe I'll stick to working on boats rather than photos.....
 
Open up a free photobucket account. Upload picture to photobucket. Click on the IMG url next to the picture. That will copy the correct pic url, then just paste here in a post.
 
You cannot post a picture on the forum.
the pictures you see are elsewhere on the net and then appear here via a link to it in the posting.
Pic of Vic is on my site. Not on ybw.

Link from T25 above explains how

This has been seen before, but I'm a closet exhibitionist anyway!

So, "Cleone", originally built as an oyster dredger at Restronguet, Fal estuary in 1860, if the history according to past owners is to be believed. Spent all her life as a yacht though. (brief mention in Swatchways and little ships - see passage on "Alert" and the Ice floes.). Floors and lower frames quite crude, so I believe the Dredger story. Looks nice with all her slap on. Joy to sail as well.

Nice to see White Heather again, ManxNobby!

Ah thank you Max!
I had not seen her with that heads'l up before. It was made for an Inchcape 45 as a trans Atlantic running sail (one of two) to help fuel consumption. It is completley flat and sets like a bag of xxx. Its one reason I would never try to make my own sails!
Thanks again.



Seagreen, thats a fantastic boat you have there. Can you tell us about her?
 
This is a good idea!
White Cloud - Sometime ago, afloat, long before I got her; having her moved; and a few weeks back during the initial stripdown. LOTS to do, hope to get her back on the water for her centenary in 2012.
