I was scrolling the internet when I found her, just as I thought I finished the saving of the picture, Firefox infamous hang occur,......... what a shame..

I just feel so longing to sail with the picture I have found, I was drunk by the easiness of the wind catching the sail.......

The only sailboat I've been on was this little HobbieCat.

I was drunk by the easiness of the wind catching the sail.......describes it. Only I'll add it was like being on a waterbed, I just wanted to go to sleep on the canvas. My buddy was operating the the rudder and sail yet I was not bored, just relaxed.

The larger they are, the less keel they have?

I know there is a stnd under the model.

It's no larger or smaller that the other 3-mast ship/boat right?

I'm just trying to figure out at what size does a sailingcraft stop having a big fin at the bottom.
