Yes.... it seems they have quite a sag to them. No doubt they have been

upkeep.


Yeah they look like Robs been sitting and swinging on them. Also
notice the poor cut of the jib, all mis-shapen and bunched up by the
bow railings.

Maybe he can't see out of those rounded and tinted ports to see the
condition of his lifelines?

And notice the deck shot, it looks like a step down Pyramid with sharp
thin corner outlining the gull wing windows. An ankle breaker, toe
cutter if I've ever seen one. Man I thought those winders were flush
mounted, typical benny thinking.

In due consideration.... the foredeck of the
35s5 is not the most ergonomic or person friendly location on the vessel.
Maybe Bobsprit has not ventured beyond the cockpit due to a fear of slipping
off those raked coamings? :-)

Who can blame him?

I believe Joe was referring to their 'droopiness' , not
unlike the owner.

Whats with the lifelines?

The lifelines are there Joe..... just hard to see in that
lighting. The
sails though... don't look like Mylar.
