I promised you I'd post some boat pictures to prove I really do have a Renken Tangerine.
Here they are. They were taken today. I've lost my baby fat that I had in those other photos.
They were taken five and seven years ago. :-) I've been working out and I'm stronger now.
Kedging off is easy....

Cool looking boat, looks like a shoe. There's one down at the place I
usually sail.

Thanks Gilligan. If it's a shoe it's a Manolo Blahnik. :-)

Whatever are you talking about, Katy? A friend took the pictures. They're digital.
They don't need to be developed in a photoshop. Just plug the camera into the computer
and upload them to the hard drive. Duh! Oh, he did cut off some water and some sky.
I guess that's cropping.

Angles are wrong, though - she looks like she's tilted towards the camera
(she's been photographed from slightly above with camera tilted down a
little, whereas, in the boat shot, the camera is near level).

Here they are. They were taken today.

Not according to the embedded timestamp.

I've seen a bunch of these boats, for a while they were
produced as the Tangerine 18. I have been on/in one but not
sailed one, the cabin arrangement is very practical for such
a small cruiser. They seem kinda slow compared to a racing
class but faster than some small cruisers that size.

BTW if that's your boat, you need new sails. Roll them
instead of stuffing them in the bag, too.

She's just leaning way 'way forward. ;)

A friend has told me about color values in JPG files, a pic
that has been cut & pasted into another will be on a
different color matrix. Don't know how to read this myself
but it's one reason why some digital photos will be allowed
as evidence in court. Another giveaway is the double ".jpg"
in the name.

It's known a hue saturation... I can crop from a photo, sample the hue of
the target and apply that to the pasted image so as to make it very
difficult to tell. This method requires detailed mask with a with a selected
pixel transparency rate sufficent to match the resolution of the target and
subject files. It is paramount that both pictures have the same resolution
to be effective. Pixel by pixel editing makes the image very difficult to
identify as a merged object.

They don't have a time stamp embedded. I can't find any in the properties. If there's
one somewhere it probably says January 1, 2002. Every time the batteries go dead in my camera
the date goes back to 2002. I gave up resetting it all the time. I don't use the date on my pictures
anyway.

There's room for two adults and two or three kids to sleep. Two long quarterberths under the cockpit.
Sitting headroom in the main cabin. No stove, no sink, not even a water tank. You have to take everything
like your going tent camping.

Your right. The sails are originals and pretty stretched out. The mainsail is in better shape than the jib.
The jib has a wire along the front. It's all rusty and the sail is stained. It needs a leech line. The leech flaps
when going upwind. It's about impossible to roll up the jib. The wire's too stiff. If I roll the mainsail it won't
fit in the bag. It's too long. It's easier to stuff them. They're not for racing. They're colorful for day sailing
around. They look OK from a distance. They get smoother after a couple hours up.

Uh, folks...c'mon. That is not his boat. I've seen the pics somewhere
before and quite a long time ago. The porn star pasted in is pretty,
and you only need to look to the left side of her to see the horizon
doesn't match the angle on the right side. You can also see the paste
job in the water and other artifacts. Metadata from my ACR program says
File Written By Adobe Photoshop 5.

As to the boat....it looks like something AMC built to be towed by a
Gremlin.

Sailing today, folks. Enjoy.

I bet so. If you were really good at pixel by pixel editing,
you could draw a photo yourself, of anything you could

Try shifting the jibsheet turning block further forward. This will pull the

The trouble is there's no turning block. There's only a cam cleat way far back in the cockpit.
I tied a little loop of line to the shroud chain plates. I put the sheet through the loop. It pulls it
down better but not enough. It needs a pulley on the deck about two or three feet forward of
the shroud chain plate. Maybe I need to get somebody to put one on for me. But, maybe it needs
a track too. That way the pulley could slide back and forth and it would work for the jib and for
the genoa. But the genoa doesn't flap. So maybe the cleat in the cockpit by itself is OK for that....

No... it can be a sloppy save by a single program. It's a matter of altering
the title to remove the format identifier, since the program will
automatically place it there again.
