Hi
I logged onto the main CVRDA website where there is usually a long thin picture which changes at the top.
This time there was a picture of an International Canoe on its side.
I tried clicking on it then I tried to find the picture in the Gallery but without success after half an hour searching. Can anyone tell me where it is ie Year / File etc.
Is there any way to amend the site so that the header pictures can be easily sourced?

Re: Website pictures
Hi Chris,
I believe that the canoe your talking about is IC41, Jack Holts last surviving international canoe, it used to be owned by Ed, and I now believe she has passed hands, who you can find the name of who to, on the boat register on the IC website, but if you do a search on the member list, a member who has recently joined is called IC41, so I am sure you can contact them for details....
I found a picture on the gallery:

Hi Max
Thanks for the info.
I've since realised that it was Ed's Jack Holt International Canoe but the picture was very interesting due to showing a top down view and I was teased to see the whole picture and the rest of the boat deck arrangement. I didn't know it now has a new owner.
Now been through every photo on the gallery but still can't find it! It must be there somewhere!
Incidentally I'm really enjoying your boat a day.

Re: Website pictures
errr....not sure who took it....
I must have a copy somewhere, but not sure.
But most probably do have other shots of the decks of Conquest.....What do you want to see?

Re: Website pictures
Baltic Wharf Nov 2006. Stu Budden and Chris Q. took the photos and I have the full set and there's a lovely quickfire sequence of Ed capsizing which is where the header picture was taken from.
The gallery is a subset as there were about 300 pictures of that day when the storm blew through the third race.
I'll have a look later when I'm home and see if I can add some more of the IC.
The header pictures are "teasers", often just a strip of a fuller image. Must add some more!

Hi Pat & Ed
Thanks for the replies.
Pat - Now that explains the pictures and you are right to call them teasers. They certainly tease me and I find them very interesting - there are some good ones. If you could post the sequence in the gallery then I will find them very interesting. It is also interesting to understand where the photos have come from and why they can't be found in the gallery. - Many thanks
Ed - I was finding it very interesting to look down on the deck of the IC and so could see clearly the deck layout. Most photos are taken from the side of a boat and so the deck is not as easy to decifer.
I'm afraid that ICs are another of my obsessives! Oh dear must put me in a home! I presume that defines me as a CVRDA member!
Thanks

The views of Conquest that I remember are normally very similar to that picture

Re: Website pictures
Yes many of us know more about the top and underside of that particular canoe!
