Some slideshows of Peter’s 13 year old Goat Island Skiff in medium and strong winds – some really nice photos here – showing how low maintenance epoxy timber boats are.
It spent years under a tarp sometimes with water inside for months.
I have just realised what fun the slideshows on Flickr are.
I already have photo sequences of the Goat Island Skiff stored there.
Can you believe it has taken me this long to have a look!
Strong wind sequence including quite a bit of planing.
Medium and strengthening wind sequence including a capsize and recovery.
Goat Island Skiff sailing and … “Ahem!”
The disbenefits of showing off to some girls in a fishing boat.
But shows capsize and recovery and how it is not difficult to get back into the Goat Island Skiff. Though there is some bailing!
