    once again pages of the same boat at a million different angles nobody else getsa look in its the steve ellwood show
    Hi Huffy

    Not sure what you are on?

    OK I have posted a batch of photo's today - pissing down outside so nothing much else to do. Anyway there are no more than three shots of each vessel and this has been agreed with the owners of the site as an acceptable amount. If you've got a problem with this, take it up with them.

    million different angles - take a good look and you will see only THREE  :crazy2:

    If you don't want to see 'non fishing boats' then simply change your settings - if you need help with that, just get in touch with the Admins and they will help you.
    fair enough maybe a million different angles was an exaggeration but you have a full page of photos which hardly anybody looks at maybe they would be better on a site like maybe ships nostalgia  :crazy2:
    As I say, if you have any problems with me posting photographs of non fishing vessels, then take it up with the owners of the site. They appear to have set it up to accommodate all water borne craft. So until I hear to the contrary I will continue to share photographs of both fishing and non fishing snaps, OK?
