Let's see your pictures of the romance of sail - and everything sailing-related. Sailing dinghies, skiffs, yachts and ships all welcome!

Not what you were expecting, this is my old Atkin "Flipper" that I built in 1983, what a joy it was while it lasted. Set up as a dagger-board catboat, I sailed and rowed the inland waterways of Southeast Texas, Sabine Lake primarily, which is a saltwater bay.
With a little caulking, it should go again soon.
