The Magnificent Seventh - not!

[Salty John]

I will now attempt to post my first image on the forum. It is a picture of my seventh boat.

My boat owning career seems to be forming a bell curve, albeit a slightly distorted one: My first was 26' (South Africa), then 27'(USA), then Adriana my beloved 32' Pearson Vanguard (USA), then the hated Jeaneau 32 (UK & USA), then on to the wonderful Butterfly at 41' the biggest (USA), down the other side of the curve to my 32' Grand Banks (a dabble on the dark side, USA), and now Minnie, an American-built Com-Pac 19 presently on her new mooring on Lake Windermere.
If, after all that, the image does not appear I will feel a prat!

Very eloquent picture. Good sailing !

Bootiful, to quote a much derided turkey farmer.

Congrats, bet you have loads of fun with her, and the boat too.

Really evocative image and a very pretty looking boat.

We will be watching out for a joint sail past with Lakesailor and then we can really bust the Ferry Nab web cam.

down the other side of the curve to my 32' Grand Banks (a dabble on the dark side)

Just watch it !! /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

lovely picture - good looking boat too.

If you preview your post, you should see the picture properly. If you cant, Then you will be able to resolve any snags without looking a prat.

Lovely looking boat - I wish you many happy times (I often wonder if I did the right thing trading up from a 21ft van de Stadt to a 42ft AWB...)
