Nice shots of your boat. Their prices are a little steep but I suppose helicopter fuel is pricier than 9.9 Honda gas.

Below is the site for Yachtshots BVI with prices. I believe they'll send a CD with 5 photos for $100.
Just have to get down there sailing!!

Damn good sail trim, even if it took me a few views to find the dinghy!

WELL DONE!

I second Mr. Jackson's trim comments

Those are dangerous pictures Rick...all you are missing is the bikinis...

You simply have to buy at least the first one...

In September we were sailing on Lake Erie and were buzzed by a helicopter with a sign that said "Boat Pix". I did not give it much thought until I received a letter Monday saying that we could purchase pictures of our boat taken from the helicopter. All we have to do is tell them to send the the pictures, keep and pay for what we like and return the rest. Does anybody have any experience with BoatPix.com? They don't say how much the pictures are, so I can't really say what I am getting for the effort. Their website says they have been in business for 25 years.

If I may permit, I think I was the pilot buzzering around you in september of 2008... although I hope we didn t bother you and that you are enjoying the pictures. Too bad the sun was not very strong this day watching the sample you put online!

Maybe next year will be better.

Now if you had a friend that was familiar with Photoshop, they could get rid of those helicopters for you!!

We did finally receive the proofs online and are thinking of purchasing one of the photos. It isn't cheap, but short of hiring an airplane to take arial views it is a bargain.

The first one in the series is the one Linda had framed and hangs in the office . Thanks for the sail trim compliments . As for the Bikini the admiral had hers stowed as it was a little cool that day plus she would not let post those anyway. Only 8 more weeks here in Ohio until we start to get ready for the season.
