Broken Boat on the Beach

So, I heard the story about this wreck...

A guy has this great idea about building a catamaran...a really BIG catamaran. So, he sinks his life savings into the project and has a local boat builder in Lombok build his dream boat. It takes almost two years to build. On his maiden voyage, his dream boat splits in two...they drag the heap of wreck onto the beach where it still lies today a couple of years later. The guy stays on the island, no money, no honey, and gets drunk every night...and that is the story of this wreck.

Now, it makes for a good picture...and story...

For a sailor it is more than a brocken boat.
Thanks for this shot.

Thank's for the nice comment:)

I'm laughing too;) Maby it's a perfect temperature one place in the middle of the Equator and the Artic Circle. But if you ones come near my part of the world, our door is open for you:)

Your photo today is absolutly awsame as always. I hope the people in the plain didn't hurt them selves.

Cheers, Pernille:)
