MAYFLOWER on an evening sail


MAYFLOWER on an evening sail

Another quick pen sketch of the Tiree 'geola', 'Mayflower', produced (many years ago) for the same book as mentioned in the previous note.  I had hoped that this would be the cover image, and I drew it in such a way that the printer/publisher could change the black blocking etc. to the required colour(s).  She is seen here entering Gott Bay.  Her large regatta lug is very prominent, and looks almost over-sized.  The working sail was much smaller. Lovely, lovely boat.   Unfortunately, Mrs Johnston passed away before the book could be published.



    Quick ?!!!  That is a beautiful drawing and much better than I could do at any speed....very nice indeed Donald !!!
