Ooooh, I could be tempted..........

Just back from a couple of days on my boat in La Napoule and this rocked up, had a good shufty, man it is just stunning..... the workmanship.

Now if they could just fit IPS............ /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

And Jeez chaps what did you do to the weather??? was thinking of a jolly to Conway, no chance /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

 

[volvopaul]

Looking at all these lovelly pics after this weekends weather, why dont I buy a boat over there? that way I think it would get more use than over here. Keep em coming! nice one

 

[DoubleVision]

A beautiful timeless classic but think of all that varnishing? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

 

[victoraspey]

Timeless classic like the forth bridge - the maintenance just goes on and on and on and on and on. Hey look...... is that the skipper and hostess trying to hang themselves?

 

[Nautical]

If you can afford to buy that baby, varnishing is the least of your worries! thank heaven for those people who are passionate enough to build it, buy it and maintain it so we can all enjoy such wonderous beauty.

I think Mr Victor wants you to buy a lovely looking cat. I mean come on, how stupid have you got to be to buy a boat with no hull redundancy!

Sod what anyone else says , she's a stunner

 

[Bajansailor]

She is more than a stunner, she is simply exquisite and gorgeous - and I am sure that she sails like a witch as well!

Does anybody know her history, or who she might be? Mr. Nautical?

 

[Nautical]

Crickey me, are you sure you are a boat enthusiast? or do you see no beauty in the sweat and toil of real craftsmen, its a good job your not in charge of anything significant.

In answer to his previous question "What Dog do I buy", might I suggest that the correct answer should be "A Stuffed One".

He was asking which Dog to get, earlier, so I suggested a lo-maintenance one...

[victoraspey]

I am passionate about boats. I see the beauty in sweat and toil of craftsman. I see no beauty in spending my hard earned leisure time maintaining it - just stupidity. Bad enough trying to find time to change the fuse in the TV never mind 85ft of mirror finish varnishing. I can talk from experience because I used to skipper a very similiar boat in my younger days. If you had a similiar job you would understand where I am coming from. The beauty soon wears off and turns to despair.

 

[[2068]]

Not if you have enough money to pay an army of craftsmen to continuously maintain it, like most of the larger boats anyway.

I really can't see Eddie Jordan getting out his polishing cloth and 3M paste anytime soon.
