Hi, I'm new to the forum and I own two vintage wooden boats. One is a rare 17' danish 1957 Botved Coronet Convertible and the other is a 16' 1959 Barbour lapstrake. I tried to attach photos to this post but the upload did'nt work??? I enjoy reading the forum and I'm sure I'll be visiting often for advice.

Welcome!

First - don't attach photos. Most web forums don't allow it, and space
limitations are the main reason why.

Second - Instead of attaching them to a thread, post the pics on the web
somewhere. You have a free website area with any paid ISP's email account,
or use www.picturetrail.com or other free hosting service. Once posted on
the web, right-click the image to copy the URL (web address). Always test
first by pasting the image URL into the window of a web browser and see if
the image displays.

Third - once posted on the web, try this procedure while logged in to this
Forum:

1. Click the "User CP" link in the browser window in the top left of the
menu bar.
2. Click the "Edit Options" link about 1/4 of the way down the left column.
3. In the "Misc Options" at the bottom of the next page, select "Enhanced
Interface" from the pulldown list.
4. Once this interface has been selected, in any "Reply" window you can
click the "insert photo" icon --> a little yellow square icon with the stamp
in the upper right corner, the mountains in the lower center.
5. Once the little dialog box titled "Please enter the URL of your image"
comes up, paste the URL of the photo in the field.

If unsure of the procedure, test first by pasting the image URL into the
window of a web browser.

Wood, I recently bought two early 60's Coronet 22 cruisers, one with outboard and the second with a 1.6L Volvo IO. Have started restoration and expect to make Madisonville with one or both this fall. Both boats are in Ocean Springs, MS. May take one to NY canals this summer. Henri
