A pink boat

Newry Beach, Holyhead. Used by the sailing club to ferry people out to their yachts in the harbour.

Hi, in what way? Colour? Or an awful image?

I’m guessing the expression ‘shocking pink’ is referred to

Yes, 'shocking pink' is the expression.....back in the day I recall seeing both a Mini and a Cadillac in equally 'shocking' colour ! They certainly drew attention.

Thanks. My good lady wife says it is more of a purple than a pink colour. Whatever, it was very bright and I suppose could be spotted approaching even in the rain. Which I imagine is the reason for painting it that colour.

Here's a less glarey blue boat from the same visit



Note to self - must learn about the use of smilies.
