Thanks M! So sad that such a cool ship that represented an interesting history has sunk, but it sure is bewildering that, with all the well-publicized predictions about this storm for at least a week before they even set sail, they intentionally sailed right into the storm. This time the crew certainly should have mutinied!

Timo - Thanks ago for such flattering praise of this photo! And your memory of your sail is spot on. This description is included in the Wikipedia page for the HMS Bounty:

"A second Bounty replica, named HMAV Bounty, was built in New Zealand in 1979 and used in the 1984 Dino De Laurentiis film The Bounty. The hull is constructed of welded steel oversheathed with timber. For many years she served the tourist excursion market from Darling Harbour, Sydney, Australia, before being sold to HKR International Limited in October 2007. She is now a tourist attraction (also used for charter, excursions and sail training) based in Discovery Bay, on Lantau Island in Hong Kong, and has an additional Chinese name 濟民號."

Bits-n-Pieces

Bits-n-Pieces Welcome to The Kamalyn Factory Outlet: Odds and Ends and Overstocks, mostly from around New England. But sometimes Kamalyn (user 286174) throws me a miscellaneous bone, like with the Bean. The laugh is on her with that one. She thought her photo was better! :D _________________________________ But just like Kamalyn, I find that all of the Google changes to Panoramio have made the site too inaccessible for me to be able to actively visit the photos of others, or to comment or actively post photos anymore. (The geniuses at Google have made it so that Panoramio is VERY difficult to view even with Google's own Android platform!) Along with all the pointless changes, the reformat to an unusable and exclusively Google-Account forum has destroyed the site's once amazing sense of community. So while I do check in from time to time, apologies in advance for only sporadic replies to comments. Cheers.
