Mark That’s so great! Looks like you and Ron had a blast with the TI. Here’s some shots from Tampa Bay Sunday.

Excellent shot mate. My 1st photo in the comp. is just a splash, where as yours is like a wall of clear jelly. It may have even won the comp. however I have it on very good authority from 2 old ladies who were in the area at the time, that you and Ron broke rule 4. of the rules. Real shame. :roll:

4. If you are in the photo, clothes must be worn.

Yes, so sorry - that definately would have been a winner but ...

How nice a sail does that look ? Where abouts is this shot taken Mark. Just interested in pinpointing it on Goggle Earth.
