Ha ha. Yeh, I realise this. Just felt like posting something because it is such a nice picture and it bought back fond memories of sailing on it with my Dad.

We came last in a long race. I got sunburnt and sick, and being a girl (and unable to hang over the side like all the male yachties) I was forced to use the downstairs toilet, which was a bucket by any other name. :lol:

Well done to iandsmith for an excellent image. Nice framing, great time of day. Real moody!
