A Thread for Jim and Anne Cate Including Boat Porn

WARNING! This post contains hard-core boat porn. The pictures have not been retouched, no photoshop has been used. Despite their content, which may titillate some viewers prurient interests, the photos do have socially redeeming content. There is full boat nudity, both frontal and from the back including the use of lesser known “toys”. If you are easily shocked, it is best you do not look at the photos.
Parental discretion advised.

Hi Jim and Anne – with that lead-in I should have gotten your interest. Anne you noted in another thread that you believed you had once seen a picture of a motor-sailing triangle. I happened to be in Ystad last week and there were a bunch of dutch boats, so I took pictures. Note that while a couple of them have the triangle tied to a stay, most of them have the triangle mounted on a halyard where they can instantaneously hoist it when they start their motor.

I realize that that might be a little much for most American CF members, since no one in the US has a triangle, much less uses one. But here in Europe they are common.

So this thread is just for the two of you – enjoy your boat porn and buy a triangle

Good thing you told what that useless thing was or I would have had to made up a story.

Re: A Thread for Jim and Anne Cate Including Boat Porn

All of us in the US are clicking on the triangles in these photos and wondering why the video doesn't play.

Apparently they can sail their boats heeled over 90* as well.

Maybe we need to look into the reduced righting moment requirements of boats headed for US markets...

All those cool cars we couldn't get, and the others with slapped on bumpers seems kinda more unfair now...

Re: A Thread for Jim and Anne Cate Including Boat Porn

Wow, Carsten, a thread just for us! Many thanks for the pix. I'll add them to my collection of images of UFOs, Bigfoot, Nessie, Elvis, and other mythical objects!

But I will not be likely to go buy one here in Oz... never seen one for sale locally, and don't need yet another unused object on board. I get enough derision about our anchor ball, and I'm such a sensitive chap...

Your point that they are commonly used in the EU area is now established, and I suppose if I were sailing there I would comply. Being a gadget-happy Yank, I'd be looking for one that had an electric hoist coupled to the engine start button with a over ride connected to the halyards. Perhaps a plugin for OPCN could be written that would coordinate the whole shebang... so many opportunities!

At any rate, thanks for thinking of us and contributing to our education.

Cheers,

Jim

PS Good one, Mr Force!

Oh, boy, that is funny right there. OK, enough with the joking around. Where DO I click to get the clip going?

Did you tick the little box that says" I certify I am over 18 years old and realize I may see pictures that some might find offensive?" otherwise the video clips won't play. Tick the box then click on the triangle
