Sun tui
A photograph of a photograph. This is my father, Malcolm Kenyon Ottaway, sailing Sun Tui, our 1960s boat. A 23 foot sloop built in Hong Kong by American Marine. The tiller is a dragon with the world in it’s mouth and inside there is a carving of Kwan Yin.
My father died in 2013. I still have the boat. Needs some work, but hoping I can sail again soon.
I can’t credit the original photographer because I don’t know who it is. It might have been me.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: sail.
pram
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: bail.
The little red pram is older than I am and leaks. Last summer we got it out and my daughter sailed and bailed with ease. She is on the racing team at Western Washington in Bellingham, racing FJs.
iridescent water
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: iridescence.
sail trim
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: holiday.
I am not sure about the trim on these sails…. bit worrisome. Really windy! What do you think?
Northwest Maritime Center
For Norm2.0’s Thursday Doors.
Here is the Northwest Maritime Center in the early morning. I swear there are doors in this picture. Ok, more windows than doors.
riggers
For Friday’s Ragtag Daily Prompt: slide.
Do they ever start sliding down and dislodge each other?
home water color
I have been posting lots of photographs of the color of water at Lake Matinenda, but I have water at home too. This is an early morning on my way to work. The boats were gathering for the Wooden Boat Festival and the sun was just above the horizon.
