The boat on the rocks is Pari. Dragged anchor in high winds.

The boat behind is Excellence III.

Out of curiosity do you what the boat is between the two already identified in the photo? I really like the look of it.

i once saw someone tie his rather expensive boat up on the quay at high tide with no slack.

he came back to find his boat hanging in the air!

This you can't even paddle out to :




Not sure on the Scope ratio though

Now that is a rather clever trick!!

Bet he will be getting the keel bolts checked when he gets back to the marina


Bit of a silly billy though given that that's not exactly a descrete or hidden southerly cardinal mark now is it

no, no, i have never stuffed a boat up on the bricks before ......... well, other than ..... and ....

It does look quite snazzy. I don't know what it is, unfortunately.
