Does anyone who has a copy of William Garden's book "The Making of Tom Cat" notice anything strange about the drawing on page 9?

That's very funny. Good eye. Maybe he has an extremely large burgee flying?

Maybe old Bill had been in one of the bottles of secret stuff before he didn't set sail...

Ian: Good eyes! However, I was kind of hoping that WG was having a little fun with us.

Then again......The boat is heeling as if the sails were full?
