Re: My refurbishment pics are No More - thanks to photobucket

Google photos works great for me, automatically backs up photos as I take them. Unlimited free storage as long as you agree to upload in a defined resolution. Im also keeping a (photo/video) log of the work ive done on/adventures ive had on my boat with its own facebook page http://www.facebook.com/...

I've got a 3 year old and a 6 month old who both just spent New Years out on Sydney harbour no problems (both sleeping in PFDs not bothered at all - see pics!). I've also got friends who have raised their kids from birth on a (40ft) sailing boat. Safer on Parramatta river than Parramatta road and th...
