"Is this you?" Trying to unite owners with picture

It's wonderful seeing a Claymore under full sail. Sadly, a rare sight these days, with so many being driven about like marinised caravans.

Don't entirely agree. Here's another Claymore being sailed extremely well just off Ardnamurchan this year.

Well . . .

Frankly I would rather not see any more posts with quite as many pictures as the one which started this thread, as even over a broadband connection it takes a while to open and so people can't scroll down to the replies straight away.

If you want to occasionally post half a dozen or so pics on a thread then I certainly don't mind as the pics are on your server, not ours. In fact, I would even be prepared to start a separate section of the forums if you wanted to make this a regular feature.

I actually think your site is a great idea - I wanted to do a similar thing myself, but never really got round to it.

I have also give Boatpix a link in the directory part of this site on the Web Resources page at http://www.bluempment.com/webresources.html . if there is somewhere on your site that you can add a reciprocal link then that would be much appreciated.

If you get any exceptional high-res pix that you think would be suitable for our monthly calendar feature then that would be good too. The acknowledgement would include a link to your site.

PLEASE! refrain from posting pix bigger than 700px wide as it means anyone not on a super-wide screen resolution has
to scroll sideways.

Shard, I have resized the pic that you posted - the copy you are seeing is now on our server. Aja - 800x600 is still a little wide.
700px wide is ideal.

for nagging . . .

Thank you Donald

At least there is a Vega in one of those photos! Just happens to be mine!

Right Steve, we've got YOUR number now!

I see MrG of Conwy has been enjoying his boat & camera. Excellent pics, I must get out a bit more on mine again now.

Thanks to Donald-the-spirtle for the complement and thanks to Donald-the-lense for the photo.
One of the Donalds knows just how difficult it is to catch the right moment to make a boat look competent when it's struggling for control!! The anti-yaw thing on the towbar was loose I think.

Where do you get these things from?

No, please - I don't really want to know.
