    What tartan is that guy wearing? The simple red and white one? I've never seen it before. I like it!

    What a lot of great photos.
    A very interesting ship. I see that she uses screw propulsion as well as sails. Do they use the motor to get out of the calm of the harbour then unfurl the sails in the breezy open water as suggested by the guy climbing the rigging?

    That is exactly it Alex the motor was to get out into the calmer waters and the sails were unfurled. I wish I could have got better pictures of the air show however it is very hard to get shots when the planes are moving that fast.

    Looks like a great time; thanks for the pics!

    I hadn't thought about it before, but I'd add "climbing rigging with a deck full of ladies" to one of those activities to NOT do while kilted.
