Yes... keeping a lookout at Fort Victoria (well, a bit later really at about 5pm).

'Hot Air' is Hull #3 in that vintage and belonged to a chap down in Penzance. He has subsequently retired and always complained that she was way too fast for him?!! He then sold her to a marine engineering workshop in Foie who re-engined her with an Evinrude Ficht 250hp - they subsequently sold it to the current owner, Paul **** who lives in Cowes. When I last spoke to him he told me he was very happy with her - I also checked that the valves did not go through the cabin as they used to in those days

Didn't realise JK did that - suppose it's better for him..... IF I had right clicked I would have known......

Thanks for the offer - have used hosts in the past but want an easy life these days - that's why I love the right click extension for resizing pics from Microsoft!!!

Its a sigma 33, and you cant miss us as we have a huge O on the stern of the boat, as its the symbol for oxygen. You can see it miles away!!
