None recent...or digital for that matter.  The camera is always with me,
and I'm either sailing my boat or on someone else's, so there aren't any
jpeg's.  Got *lots* of it up on the stands in the yard.... :-(

The boat's a tad beamier than that, but it can move along smartly...with
a
clean hull, that is.  (I'm a mile from the outfall of a sewage treatment
plant, and as a result, marine growth is astonishing.)  According to
Phil's
own mathematical estimates, hull speed should be about 6 knots, but I've
done better than that using a "KnotStick" to measure speed (a spring
balance type of gauge, with a plastic disc trolled behind providing the
resistance).  I've done 7-8 on occasion and maybe a bit more on surges.

Cheers
