Hi Ragtop. I'm guessing you're from RW. If not, then please drop me a line and I'll explain anything strange that seems to be happening.--Bob M 07:27, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, I'm from RW, though a bit of a lurker. Thanks for giving us a home.RagTop 09:38, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Welcome, oh convertible one. Human 01:08, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Haha, yes, I know that ragtop is slang for a convertible, but it's the name of our yacht. We know the song (Ragop Day) and just liked the sound of it. It makes me think of palm trees & tropical waters. And here in Central Qlueensland it's just starting to warm up nicely.RagTop 03:36, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
 * You have a yacht? I'm not sure I can associate with the loiks of you ;) Human 04:43, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, a broken yacht just now. How to spoil a nice day out! RagTop 06:06, 23 August 2009 (UTC) [[Image:Broken_yacht.JPG]]
 * Are there at least oisters under that canvas? And maybe a couple of big block motors providing a combined 1100 horsie powerz? Human 08:23, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Huh, newly antifouled, so nothing sticking to us underneath, and only one little 20HP motor to trundle home with. (After we retrieved all that rig - several hundred kilos. I've got bruises & aches & pains to add to my mangled ego.) RagTop 14:00, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I had a part share in a Mirror dinghy (a self built 11 foot "pram" dinghy) in the 60s on the Thames: dodging Gas tankers & getting told off by the river police (or whatever the authoritarian wazzocks were called). Went out to the pirate radio fort (Radio London?) once - outside the 3 mile limit: scary. Not sailed since.
