News from Newfoundland:Thu 10/16/97 6:55 PM From John Gill ( mcgill@nf.sympatico.ca ) Hi Bill, I finally got a picture scanned of my shark (#712, Mamashee) with the Matthew in the background. It is saved as a .bmp file, I don't know if that's acceptable? If not, let me know and I'll try again in another format. I'll email this note first, and the photo file "matthew.bmp" immediately after. The photo was taken Aug.3/97 as the Matthew approached Botwood harbour. We were headed into a light southerly breeze, hence the use of the outboard. You can't see many boats, but 123 boats from the area went out to meet her. The Matthew's crew said it was typical "Matthew" weather, heavy overcast and rain, for her arrival. I heard she would most likely winter in Toronto, worth a look, especially when you consider she's 1497 technology. John G
