I once tried off-shore racing folks,
my boat done up in blue
The red boat that I raced against
was quite a fast one too

We crashed into each other with
both boats completely ruined
but worst of all, I'm going to say,
we ended up marooned!

Now that's art...  Maybe?
I haven't taken an art class since the 7Th grade, I think your mixture for that color is more like a Far East boat "clash"...
(So salley)...

JL,
Lol, thanks. I've got to be more careful with these things, last time around I think I hurt myself and had to take a week or so off to recuperate.

I'm just glad you weren't purpled out of your boat and drown!

I think it is the sea itself that rebels against off-shore racing ... it does not share with men the passion for speed. It's all natural pace.

psst ... I love speed too!

Great one!

Lori,
Thanks lol, apparently there wasn't enough "purpellent" force from the crash.
Doc

Krawdad,
Thanks, glad you stopped in for a laugh.
Doc

Margherita,
