<< I have recently had a web-site shown to me that contains pictures of an
openboat so stunningly beautiful, that I would like to share it with you.

The ironic thing to me is that the designer, Phil Bolger, is a designer that
I have always associated with boats with an 'individual appeal' - I shall
put it like that. Some of his designs have put function above form to a
degree that, although I understand they perform very well indeed, leave me
cold.

This boat would put the curves of a Miss World contestant to shame.

I hope that you enjoy this as much as I have.

I am not sure what the policy is on "forwards", but here is one from the
openboat cruising group that seems to fit our "official" content exactly.

I hope I am not violating a written or unwritten rule, but I thought you
would enjoy this boat.
