Bondi's suggestion from a previous thread. Apologies as bit rushed at moment and didn't have decent look for something funnier.

Just thought I'd mark the point where I want to set the mast foot.
Just there looks about right.

experts say "closing the gap" is a great way to squeeze out the extra speed but Barry took the concept just one step too far...

The down side of RDMs, they're much sharper at the end.

Well as we know it stands for Feeble Italian Attempt at Technology.

Don't think it applies to RRD though - best thing to come out of Itiland since Ferrari and Lamborghini

Just cos its a gun sail, doesn't mean you should rig it on a reduced diameter shotty.

Mourning the catastrophic injury to his new board, James returns to the beach with his sail at half mast.

Okay I'm going to call it.

Quite surprised at just how many good captions were submitted (considering the photo wasn't our normal serving of filth ),but alas there can only be one winner and in light of his presciense I can't go past Al Planet's "that's the last time you rig up my gear Kev" (+ the coffee table one)

Over to you Julia, oops I mean Al

My theory was that he was always a member of the undead (note the pale skin and unease with the modern vernacular, I am sure he would be much more comfortable speaking some ancient dialect in the company of Tom Cruise) which I think is pretty cool, I am a big fan of the Ruddster.

This theory allows that Julia is cast in the roll of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" though she looks more like the red headed witchy sidekick.
