Great afternoon in the Clyde. Bit lumpy at times but a great sunny afternoon. [image]

Great pictures Neil, is that Jim and Sally's Cruiser 460 in the background,were there many boats from Largs marina out? I wish I could have come up, but unfortunately had family commitments today.

Yes Dave, that's Jim and Sally's 460. There was quite a few boats from Largs. It was really bumpy at times - wakes coming from all directions! Alistair R from this forum took some pics of us and he might post some. A fantastic day.

Was watching her on AIS earlier this morning - doing 25 knots or thereabouts......

It was a fantastic day.

I took over 200 pics and some video.

I even got some of your boat, Lucas. Although difficult to get a good shot of your boat with the QE2 in the background when we were so far behind her.

The wakes of all the boats made it really interesting for some boats.

Here is a couple of pics as a taster of what else is too come! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Was truly a great day, one never to be repeated.

Cheers

Al.

Neil: has your tender fallen of the back of your boat,no sign of it in the photo took by Alistair.

The magic of photography! I do hope the distances are foreshortened in your second pic. If not, and I was in the Fairline/Princess in the foreground, I would be saying my prayers.
