jack.aubrey Posted October 25, 2016 Author #32 Posted October 25, 2016 (edited) Let's continue with the series of images with a vengeance . . at least let's admire the sights and the landscapes. In fact I'm starting to make a little thought for the next summer holidays. Goodbye to the next issue, Jack. images/12715593_1314013735290879_2037135751945228254_n_zpsgnu1euug.jpg images/12042903_1215228331836087_295011510375137396_n_zpsv3hlne6b.jpg images/11012378_1215228275169426_6462948114002841846_o_zpsgjwhtiur.jpg images/10463693_927335837292006_6394385187921804234_o_zps2zvgjbcw.jpg images/10317732_1215228268502760_6401978997122026300_o_zpszc7pc6ry.jpg Edited August 8, 2017 by jack.aubrey druxey, mtaylor and Altduck 3 Quote

jack.aubrey Posted October 25, 2016 Author #34 Posted October 25, 2016 Again nice pictures Jack, where are they taken? It does look like an interesting area to visit. I found the photos on the net, but I believe they are taken on the Vis island, more in detail in front of Comizo. Regards, Jack. mtaylor 1 Quote

jack.aubrey Posted August 8, 2017 Author #36 Posted August 8, 2017 (edited) Tuesday, August 8, 2017 I finished to restore the images that disappeared thanks to Photobucket. . Now they are (or rather the conditional would be) all visible as before. I would be grateful if you would like to report any anomalies in the visualization of images, maybe via private message. Thank you. Jack. I've added other unpublished photos. . 01 Gaeta Falcata 01 02 Gaeta Falcata 02 03 Gaeta Falcata 03 04 Gaeta Falcata 04 05 Gaeta Falcata 05 Continua . .

JohnE Posted August 9, 2017 #39 Posted August 9, 2017 Wow, that looks like so much fun! I love the rig, and imagine they go like a rocket on a broad reach in a blow. I especially like the "Comizo Lisbona" going wing-on-wing on the previous page. Beautiful boats. Simply beautiful. Ciao. John Seventynet, Mirabell61 and mtaylor 3 Quote
cotrecerf Posted August 2, 2022 #40 Posted August 2, 2022 JackAubrey, many thanks for the ample and fascinating info on these boats and ships. Great photo collection; not so easy to shoot them under sailing conditions. Yes, and I agree that the O'Brian naval novels are so enlightening for the era and always worth to re-read them. Each time I find new fascinating details to follow. best regards Joachim Canute and mtaylor 2 Quote
