Ah, digital imaging. So much for "the picture never lies."

By the way, that's one BIG wench up there on the deck. I hope she plays basketball.

I guess I could have made her smaller...she's an adjustable wench.

While that will continue to be the name of the game for most of us, an island, rock formation, exposed reef, towed barge, etc. doesn't do a great job of 'paying attention'. As the price of radar systems continues coming down and the quality and ease of use keeps going up, I think we'll start seeing more of them on boats our size (as an additional safety device which supplements information gained from our charts, GPS's, radios, etc.).

Oh, Steve, not good. This could open up an infinite loop -- if she were smoking, she'd be a pipe wench; wearing boxing gloves, a socket wench; Arabian, a crescent wench; carrying something heavy, a lug wench. . . and all this because someone wanted to turn their C25 into a Hunter. It's not nice to fool with Mother Nature, or Father Butler.

Transvestite? She might be an Allen wench.
Into primates? She might be a monkey wench.
There's a few others, but even I'm not going there.

Steve,

You must secretly be on the design team for MacGregor. Better be careful or they may sue you for releasing their 'spy shots' of their newsest design concepts. Kind of like the auto industry 'spies' that shoot those pictures for Car & Driver and Motor Trend over some fence at a test track in the desert.
