    The Shadow Boat is called Amavi Surprise. Does anybody know if it is the Shadow boat of M.Y. Amavi

    In the next few photos you will see the bow of a boat sticking out. That is where the big fire was and there are 4 boats lying there. I asked the Marina guy when they are going to remove the debris but he has no idea. Quite sad to see the bow sticking out like that. The Marina guy told me that the fire brigade sank the boats as the fire was out of control.

    Hey Graham, the pics are much appreciated. I am glad to see pics of Givi, it seems that people hardly spot her and take pics.

    Suprise is the shadow to Amevi not Amavi:rolleyes:...unless of course you know something I do not?

    Yachts in Barcelona

    Anyone in Barcelona that can take some pictures of whats in the port? According to AIS, there are some great looking vessels there that would be worth the photograph

    Graham usually does take pics in that area, but we do not know if he is in Barcelona or any where near Spain at the moment!

    If Graham goes to the 'Fastnet Pub' next week. I might just see him.

    Barca is my default vacation destination this time of year. As we all know, no one gets Spring and Summer off when working with boats.

    I just hope I don't get snowed-in for three days at the airport this time.
