I really like this photo.
I was impressed by both the boat and owner too.

Have to agree about the boats. Although motor-sailers, they are towards the sailing end of the spectrum and as party boats they are surely without equal in the 30' range.
Owners, however...

You've got one of those new-fangled portait format monitors, I suppose.

A close scroot of the (lower) port shroud area shows two burgees. However, the BMsunset wasn't even a twinkle in Ockle's eye, when we were on that particular mission.

Tee hee! I take it you are still working on the premise that if you say a thing often enough it becomes true.
