Photo Gallery - All Members Boats

Been wanting to start this for some time and now that it's winter for quite a few of us perhaps there's time for pics and tell. Here's our chance to share with all our friends what your boat is like close up and out on the water. Try to present photos where your boat is large enough in the picture to see lots of detail. I'll go first with some pictures you may not have seen. Also comment on your pictures about what is we're seeing. I hope we'll be able to find our photo album in the future to add more pictures and otherwise update.

Here's my first presentation. I prefer to make my comments on an edit.


1. * * Here is Chris putting epoxy putty in the screw holes that held on wood trim. The wood trim and screw holes couldn't be tolerated in the Alaska weather.
2. * * On the tidal grid where you can see the shape of a typical Willard full displacement hull. Willard yachts were designed by Rod Swift.
3. * * Underway in the north end of Thorne Bay.
4. * * Close to shore at high tide Willy proudly displays her full speed.
5. * * High tide in Thorne Bay
6&7. In these two pictures one can see the fully developed wake of a full displacement hull at hull speed. For Willy that's 7 knots. She burns half the fuel and makes half the wake at 6.15 knots where we normally cruise.
8. * * Willy at the Ketchikan Yacht Club floats at Thomas Basin in Ketchikan Alaska.
9. * * Willy's half lost in a sea of boats in Petersburg.
10. * My cap rail still looks this good and that's the old Danforth that has never let me down. This picture was taken after leaving Metlakatla west bound. The water ahead is lower Clarence Strait and southern Prince of Wales Island beyond.
11. * On the grid just touching.
12. * Willy fully exposed after several years w/o bottom paint.

RE: Photo Gallery - All Members Boats

Willy may be handsome but her skipper is DUMB. AS in DUUUU. Never thought about all the comments, questions and probably arguments. The photos are going to get lost in all the discussion.....can you imagine I never thunk of dat. I envisioned just endless pictures of beautiful and/or interesting boats. But what do you guys think. Is this a problem? I think so but I'm just one guy. If the pics are mostly lost among dozens and dozens of typical posts will the thread be no longer an album? If all the pics stayed on top and all the discussion below * * .....I'm sure there's no way to bring that about. Any ideas? I should'a asked John first * ..but I didn't.

Don't sweat it mang!!! *The only thing I will do is ask that everybody post pics!! *Nothing wrong with somebody making a remark about how handsome a boat may be or something along those lines. *But let's just keep it to that. *If you feel the urge to discuss some of the finer or lesser points of somebody's boat in length, please start another thread. *Like I said, nothing wrong with light discourse about the boat pics being posted.
