Pics of Joshua from CWB WBF

I really only took picutres of the Joshua at the festival, simply a stunning boat.

I thought people here would like to see them too.

Bill, the owner, was such a nice guy to boot. I was lurking around his boat for quite a while, checking out his rigging and such, when he invited me on and we shot the tar about his new course yard and sailing with it, and other random stuff. It was a great time.

Yes, great boat, thanks! Bill built Joshua, by the way, retired Navy; was involved with approving Naval small craft. I had a beer on her Friday night, great time, very interesting hearing Bill speak of things in general. Stout vessel. The cask on the cabin top (second image) says it all. Good time boat. The Monk in the background, which is similar to Rita, is "Flying Cloud, but if I didn't know better, I'd say it is Rita herself.

Yes, by far the most interesting boat in the show IMHO. I must have spent hours just taking in all the awesome rigging and fittings. Beauty in utility, at its best!

I meant to get a list of people to meet at the festival from the forum community, but it never came together... but I would like to meet y'all in person sometime!
