The bright side, Barman realised, was that at least this time he hadnt had to worry about Snoopy using him as a watering target. point:

Well, all I can say is, that whoever photoshopped that one made a basic error.

I'd like to know what is holding up the stern on the port side (that's the rear left if you're non-nautically minded)?

Given that on this type of boat the engine will be in the stern half of the boat, any boat ending up like that would have fallen.

And don't tell me about the bow rope (the one at the front), 'cos there's no way that I can see that rope/know/post combination supporting a 3 - 4 tone boat!

It only looks like 2-tone to me, or is the top bit (superstructure?) "Navy Blue" and the bottom (keel?) "Midnight Blue"?
