Request for a Dinghy Picture

[Evadne]

I know its a long shot, but I can never find quite what I'm looking for on the Web. Would anyone have a nice piccie of a 505 under sail they would be willing to let me use, preferably close-up, preferable 3/4 bows-on, planing with the spinnaker up and the crew clearly visible on the trapeze. Or similar. It's for my next painting project, so resolution is less than important and copywright will not be compromised. I promise to email a scan of the finished article (we're talking next xmas here) to the sender. If it's any good.
Email anything 100kb or under to me at dwh@soc.soton.ac.uk while I'm away entertaining the inlaws or PM me and I'll get in touch in the New Year.

Happy Christmas, Fair winds (unless you're a motorboater in which case Flat seas) for 2005.

Thanks,
Dave

Thanks guys, and Talbot, for the links and pictures, before I even got to go home! That should be enough for me to go on.
Happy Christmas.
