    A few pics of the female variety and the YF t-shirt Ooops could easily be forgotten; but five years until the next opportunity to view the ladies of the night?

    Perhaps the anticipation and excitement of the night-lights were a bit too much.

    Great job, just the same - lots of enthusiasm.


    P.S.- Here's a little teaser until the next venture.

    J my man!

    Great job, priceless shots, fun coverage! I am so happy for you that you got to the show, had fun. You are true at heart for boating and I wish you all the best.

    I think many members here and around deserve the addition of a new word to the dictionary, Yachtthusiasts, seeing your coverage, remembering discokachina's and captain tom's coverages and all the great info posted by yachtnews and many other great members here makes this word pop right in mind. I just wish my plans of visiting the show this year came through and had the privilege to meet you milow232 and other members that were there but such is life, a compulsory vacation in BED! :rolleyes: :/

    Thanks again buddy, all the best.

    Cheers,

    (P.s.: Next time, pack YF t-shirt before the **** toothbrush! :p )

    Awesome photos! It would really be a treat to visit Monaco for its yacht show.

    Question: Is the Ulysses I'm seeing in one of the photos, the expedition type
    vessel, or a newer vessel? I was told that the original Ulysses was up for sale
    earlier this year.

    Hi,

    Built most of the way then caught fire in Trinity.

    The Owner bought the wreck and shipped it to Australia where a team of his own guys finished it off to a state good enough to run it to NZ on its own and do the finishing touches there.

    Yes I agree.

    It looks simple but I think it's quite difficult to get them so close together even with their ips drives.
