Random photos taken at Chertsey!

Post by WinnerCobra »

I thought I would post these, would have done it sooner but was on holiday! Anyway IMO its always nice to see pictures of your own boat in action...I was hoping to get a nice action picture for John Dunk in Flighty, but alas he was nominated photo boat... so no luck there! So instead (from the slipway) clicked away for a couple of minutes and took a random selection of pics late in the day, some OK, some really poor as edited as boats just too far away.. :( but I assume you all have some lovely shots taken by the professional ! :D

Great shots James, thanks for posting them up - some nice shots of my Stapely 'freight train' as Rapier has kindly named it. 8-)

See here a couple of Flighty on the go.

Mercs are like women, no 2 are exactly alike. That's what testing is about. In general it is safer to test motors and props than women!

Does anyone know where/when the 'proffesional' photographs are due to appear?
