I saw three ships come sailing in (the day after) Christmas day....

We set sail on Boxing day on the good ship R. Tucker Thompson, for a days sailing round the bay of islands. You can read more about her here : http://http//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R._Tucker_Thompson



A short stop on dry land before lunch.

...and to think they let him take the helm!

... with some direction he did quite well......
(those are swimming trunks he's wearing ... he's into tight leather look shorts! .... well, not in public anyway! LOL!)

.... but not as well as me! (obviously!).

... what no power steering!?! - it was bloomin' hard work!

To say I don't usually like boats, the distraction of taking the helm helped! - I wonder if the Cathay Pacific pilot will think the same!?!....
She's in full sail!
