As already said, nice texture in the sea, and nice to look down on these rigs just to see how there are set out. They look very small from this image but I bet there are quite big once you get on-board.

Pete, used to be at culdrose myself many moons ago,Barry i agree it looks smaller than on my 8mb original, still trying to understand re-sizing, but brain hurts.
