I...Yup, alas Buff has hit the nail on the head.<br /><br />I'd like to say it was one of your great suggestions - O'Docker certainly wins the Gold Googler award.<br /><br />But what got me was that the Laser sailor had a nice woolly red hat, the Wayfarer gent a natty white number while Mr Polar Bear (great name) matched his shorts with no hat at all.<br /><br />And it must be admitted that it was a rather chilly Sunday a strong wind blasting in from the East with a high wrap-up-warm factor.<br /><br />Interesting how many things can be spot in three sailing / kayaking photos.JPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10749223049615363296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18283526.post-28597896641732038802010-03-11T20:37:28.733+00:002010-03-11T20:37:28.733+00:00What a bunch of coots!

An asymmetrical spinny on such an old and established design? Then I found this:<br /><br /><i>The Wayfarer World was introduced in 1997 and was designed as a collaboration between Ian Proctor and his son Keith. .... This is the only version with an asymmetric spinnaker, although it can not be used in class races [except in the UK]. It has proved successful in both racing and cruising, including a North Sea crossing 1998.</i><br /><br />Is that your odd man out, JP?<br><br>O Dockerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08674140306304705852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18283526.post-30625226604471302912010-03-11T07:01:31.406+00:002010-03-11T07:01:31.406+00:00I must be the Polar bear, correct.
