Anyone know 'Finesse', 'Manana' or the roving fender salesman?

PM me your email if you want the originals.

Manana (with the tilde over the first n) - lots of these...

Is it a Welsh thing to have your fenders on the rail whilst sailing????

Although I couldn't see his stripy jersey and beret, I assumed he was French - advertising his wares in the manner of "Johnny Onions".

May be wrong, though...

Thanks for reminding me just how ugly and soulless AWBs are! It may even be that they look better when a bit scruffy and with stupid banana fenders dangling off the front.

Just my personal thoughts - I am sure someone loves them!

It's a bit like babies - everyone else's is ugly

(but it's not polite to say so!)

I'm not certain but I think that there is a strong line that connects them to the keel. I could be wrong, of course; too far to be sure. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Why would a Frenchman wear a <span style="color:red">red ensign</span> on his boat? /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Next time you're down here in the Mediterranean, do let me know and I shall make up for the omission! /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

Whereabouts were you, and when? I'm pretty sure I've seen you around (the boat name is familiar, anyway).
