#Monomad sailboat graveyard in Greece

2 comments

Getting back to Asia included an improvised trip to Rhodos, where I spent some days recouperaing, living on canned meat & olives while doing some photography with an old Nikon D700 that I brought along to perhaps sell.

Most of the hulls could be put at sea easily, except this one

I sailed my own boats for a couple of decades, so I asked a pirate about buying an old one without any papers or other BS to travel around to the islands, he told me they'd break up the boat, thinking I was planning to do something commercial.

No one will be behind this tiller again...

That explains what I found down at the harbour, several broken, large and in the past expensive boats!

Jeanneau does not come cheap!

Most of these except the last two are taken with a 16mm 2.8 fisheye that I plan to sell, to add a bit to the organic shapes, as well as making for twisted lines from masts and so on :-)

I would not hesitate sailing the one to the right as is, without engine
