Is that a White Ensign you're flying in the pic that went with this caption, Andre?

Are you refering to the St. Georges flag cos being a foreign "vessel" in Polish waters I had to fly a flag . I thought the Union Jack would be too obvious so decided on the St.George's. One evening whilst having one of many beers in the marina I was approached by a German yachtsman who told me he couldn't think what that flag was , firstly he thought of Denmark then Iceland and then it dawned on him FOOTBALL and BECKHAM of course England. Just shows what football and Beckham have done to make the English flag known to a wider audience.

very nice pics and nice boat too.
Poland looks very nice.
I've been in Gdansk taking delivery (as a third officer) of a passenger ship (ferry) sometime a go (about 20 years+ ago) it was winter, (about this time Christmas), very cold and misrable.
I was very supprised that after we sailed and had to look in what use to be the officers lockers to find lots of bottles with neat spirit.
I was very inocent those days and asked the Greek Captain what that was for? The reply 'They drink it neat spiriti in Poland he said'. I was cob smaked LOLOL
However, I suppose in any country that someone visits to have a good time he should know the right places to go and see (there you need one with local knowledge). And you Andre (from what I see) certainly know where the right places are in Poland.
Would love to get there one day.
