Notice the "oil-on-the-water" effect where the ripples are smaller on the left with "Ellen"/Neal?

Duh, get a decent monitor. On the left is just plain water. The water on the right of me has
the reflection of the boat and sails in it. It would look the same all the way across if the reflection
wasn't there. They're ain't nobody good enough to match up waves like that using Photoshop.

Cheers,
Ellen

Impossible. Neal isn't that slick. He's just slimy.

My boat's a Renken Tangerine. It's red/white/blue. The name's Elle

Here's a picture. http://ellenmacarthur.badongo.com/picture/5266/293242

That picture looks more like mauve, white and blue to me...

I couldn't see the pics in the link. Is there something I need to make sure
I have in order to view?

As for the boat I can't say that it is my particular choice in boat but it is
nice and actually is a sailboat as opposed to the Mac. I saw one of those
and I really was dissapointed that anyone would do that to fiberglass then
call it a boat. really I lost a little faith in humanity.

I don't think you need anything but your browser. They come up OK for other
people. Your the first person that's said he can't see the pictures. What do you see?
Just a place holder? Maybe they're so hot your browser has them restricted?

I know what you mean. People waste 25K on junk like that when they could buy
a seaworthy, safe and comfy passage maker. Used, of course. I was looking at the
Sailboat Trader catalog and check this out: 30ft Grampian Marine 1972 17,500$,
Newport 30 1981 18000$, lots of Catalina 30s for less than 20000$, Endeavor 32
1978 24000$, Rawson 33 1972 15500$, 1978 Hunter 33 14500$, 1981 Custom
Steel 34ft no rust 25000$, and on and on.
"I'm stupid" is what they tattoo on your forehead when you buy a MacGregor....

Okay it didn't work at my office but it did at home. I just got a place
holder there but wow. Nice pics. I am pretty sure there was a boat in that
image. Is that really you?

I couldn't help but think that the MacGregor comes with a requirement that
all owners must wear large amounts of fake gold jewelry and a speedo at all
times while underway. It seems to me that you sail because you want to.
That being the case shouldn't the sailing aspects of the boat and the sailing
experience be the most important rather than convenience and cupholders?

It's really a guy named Neal who is so childish that he's pretending
(poorly) to be a woman.

Quite sad and pathetic actually...

It would look ever so much better after the application of a couple of
gallons of bright yellow paint.
