roguewave Posted July 9, 2008 Share #3 Posted July 9, 2008 Rob, great light & color in these renderings. I particularly liked the last. Nice angle and very complimentary to the vessel & crew. Not many markings on the mains. Isn't it required to have sail numbers in Canada? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsteve Posted July 10, 2008 Author Share #4 Posted July 10, 2008 Ben: The sail numbers were not visible on the other photos. Incidentally, this lady, a former Commodore of the Royal Nova Scotia Yacht Squadron was injured in a ski accident about fifteen years ago. Last summer a regatta for disabled sailors was held in Halifax and she took up sailing again in the provided boats. She finished in a respectable position considering some of the other sailors there are headed to the Olympics. After that experience she decided to buy a Bluenose class sloop and adapt it so she could sail it. The small seaside community of Chester, not far from where she lives has a large fleet of Bluenoses that race every Tuesday night at the Chester Yacht club. I think this was the second race in the series. My first sailboat was a Bluenose, sail number B2, the second one made. B1 is in the museum.
