It's a great road to that ferry, its as if you are going trough peoples private land then when you get to Skye the road is like a rollercoaster on a motorbike

Fairly recently I broke down on the road from the ferry to Broadford. Amazingly I was able to get a mobile signal to phone the RAC. The problem was that the road is unclassified - it's not even a B road. Trying to explain to someone in England where I was proved to be problematic. After waiting for ages I got a call from the mechanic asking whereabouts I was in Breakish! Close but no cigar.

I really like this image a lot - very nice capture!

It looks like the film was processed in a fairly dilute solution of D-76. Am I correct? Can you give some details in that regard?

It might be old school in an increasingly digital world, but I am a huge fan of grain.

Atkin designed very good boats for going places.

She is stiff and fast also. We have surprised many sailors as we start to catch them on any point of sail besides close hauled. A big surprise when they realize that our wind vane is steering!

With the right breeze and a little luck... a Herreshoff FIS 31 from the '20's giving the slip to the entire (modern) class:
