You mean Joe's pic of the two lovelies sitting near the bow? I saw lots of that, when sailing in the Med. (Southern Turkish coast, mostly, some Greece, aboard a friend's old wooden 57' ketch.) This was back in September of '80. All these old guys, sailing around in $$$$ sailing yachts. Mostly crewed, but the poor folks chartered. Yet these old guys spent so much money on the boat, or the charter, they couldn't afford tops for their trophy wives or girlfriends swimsuits!

Alas, we left the Turkish scene on Sept. 12th, 1980. Seems they had a coup going on. May happen again, if the Muslim zealots gain too much political power. Attaturk may have been wise in that regard. The Turks have an interesting political system. If the zealots gain too much power, the military steps in and removes them from power. In the early 20th century, Attaturk was the guy who dragged Turkey, kicking and screaming, out of the middle ages, into the 20th century.

The funny thing was...after I'd seen it (topless babes in monokinis) a few times? I couldn't wait to see more!
