Anyone know where I could get some good full resolution photos of preferably Musto / 12ft / 18ft / 49er? (although any skiff will do)

Need them for a project I am doing

Thanks

edit: Missed out Musto first time..

http://www.photoblink.co.uk/ have Musto pics
http://www.flickr.com/people/robbersdog/ has 12 foot skiff pics
http://www.christophefavreau.book.fr/ has 18ft skiff pics
http://www.hotcapers.com have pics of 49ers

I doubt many photographers would give you high res pics for free, so better
start saving up!

Tried, y'know, one of the Proffessional Photography outfits? Or are you trying to get something for nothing?

I need 1 or 2 pictures that can be printed sort of poster size (Aparantly for this they need to be high res so they stay good quality) as examples of high performance skiffs, paticularly how do you put it.. The appeal of speed in pictures? If you know what I mean? Not really sure how to say it, not that with it today

And I'm willing to bet that if you contact the above (and maybe fotoboat) you'll be able to find someone who'll be happy to sell you waht you're after. You're not going to get something that will look good at poster size for nothing.

Ok, think I might improvise then because I'm not spending a bomb on a school project.

wait for a windy day, and give a mate a half decent camera, then go out in your 9er, that should get you some good(ish) legal high res photos.

Thats what I had in mind as long as I can borrow a rib for 10 minutes . And when I find time, hardly done any sailing all summer and now I'm back at school bogged with work  and um commitments. finding it hard to find time to sail it.

Give me an excuse to go though
