As it appears a lot of people are beginning to suffer from "end of season blues", I thought I'd post a piccie taken back in July to cheer you all up.

Of course, there may be some it offends because it's a bit boaty..... but they don't have to look! /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Why stop at July ???

OK - soon I will have to lift my river job out before winter sets in out here ... and she gets frozen in.

But UK - I love winter sailing ......

This image of the top of a life ring is completely ruined by a nuisance dolphin in the background. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif
 
Totally agree about the beautiful U.V. strip.... it was new last year, so when the pic was taken it still had that lovely sheen to it that puts the rest of the boat to shame. No doubt it will fade in time......

The manky old bit of wood underneath was "The Earl of Pembroke". She (or should that be he?) was running day trips out of Weymouth.

For people who like manky bits of wood rather than lovely bits of new shiny U.V. strip, heres another one.....
