<p>I don't know. The boat name is "Morning Star" and I have found that the actual owner is Peter Weil and he is in this forum! Perhaps you can ask him if he can put his thoughts about his shade in this thread.</p>

<p>I think it was Knox Johnson who lauded the British merchant marine as the finest institution to learn the ways of the sea.So having cut their teeth on wharrams surely your sons now are surrounded by topless totty?</p>

<p>Here's another couple of pics of James' shelter, taken about ten or twelve years ago when we had a short holiday on Gaia in Greece. I'm not sure but I think the pipes may have been something stiffer than PVC. It's ok in short lengths but longer bits tend to sag after a short time. I tried using it for a tent once and it wasn't very successful. Better to buy fibreglass tent poles that are also easy to stow away as you can collapse them into a very short bundle.…</p>

They're just finishing their training to be merchant marine bridge officers. One is shuttling a ferry back and forth between Dover and Dunkerque, and the other is on a 100,000 ton P&O cruise ship. It just shows you where messing about on a Wharran can lead...</p>
