Personally I think <span style="color:#666666"> GREY </span> is a fantastic colour for a spinnaker - don't you agree?

Bowing to Stingo's request - this is a different and re-sized image
The colour of the spinnaker is, without doubt, GREY.

Claysie,

Before you save your photo to Yotblog.com, from Windows Explorer, please right-click on it, click on "open with" click on "Microsoft Photo Editor" and change the size to 640x480.

Thanks.
 
This is my spinnaker. I bought and paid for it and its the size it is. I am not prepared under any circumstances whatsoever to make it smaller as this would not represent value for my hard earned cash.
You are very lucky that I'm here at all as my IT skills are not great and your suggestion is just beyond my capabilities
So there
 
But Claysie, it is so big, that it's like watching a tennis match. You know, with my head turning from left to right and back again, repeatedly. Could cause a sprained neck, just from admiring your grey taste.
 
John, John, John.
That surely is a fine (and huge) looking spinaker of which you are obviously and understandably very proud.
However you are still failing to accept the undeniable fact that it is GREEN!
OK you happen to have found a photo taken under light conditions that give the impression of greyness but we all know the truth.
Now, stop sulking, accept the fact that it is green, learn to live with it and then perhaps you can find closure and get on with the rest of your life.
Failing that I will be forced to impose pinkness on you again!
 
There must be a story behind it ?Surplus from a RN experiment to save fuel on warships? Or warships in silent mode to confuse enemy subs?

Or did you hot wash it with your new grey Tshirts? /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif
 
I seem to be picking up some form of tacit agreement that the colour Grey is the one you see?
There are a number of scurrillous scufflebog dogs who shall remain nameless - Jimi, Donald Beaton, Para Handy, LongJohnSadler, Colin and TCM - who are afflicted with the colour blindness, poor souls, and think that its green.
I think the picture puts the discussion to bed.
 
Grey-green?

Don't be daft.
We'd just come out of the Sound of Islay leaving the grey buoys to port. The day was overcast - though dark green clouds hung low over a brooding sea, the hillsides of Jura were decked (ha!) with trees bursting with a vibrant grey foliage.....
 
Could you just get your Granny to come on line and tell us what colour her bloomers were before they were converted?
