Superb shots of........

both Top Banana & Black Jack. I can't wait to see the latter back up here in Abersoch.

Looks like a fun couple of days on the water and I'd imagine just as much liquid flowed at the Jackeens ! I hope someone had a camera !

Black Jack pulls out of Saxon Wharf and will you just look at the pride on the beaming faces of the happy couple. Debbie seemed pretty excited too!
