    "Blue Guitar" Yacht

    Great day for yacht viewing on the Ct. river area in and around Essex,Ct. where we spotted a classic yacht flying the "Union Jack" flag. The yacht appropriately named "Blue Guitar" for the owner of this jewel, namely, Eric Clapton. Way to cool!!!

    There is another "Blue Guitar" yacht that I found. The CNN article pointed me to this one.

    Re: "Blue Guitar" Yacht

    Blue guitar is owned by a famous guitar guy. Pretty sure it is Eric Clapton.

    Re: "Blue Guitar" Yacht

    So which picture is his "boat"? I love that term for something this size. I remember a thread on here discussing what determined a "yacht". I think these both qualify.

    As to EC... he is very unpretentious. My nephew met him in a bar in Asheville NC at a Jean Jacques Cale show. (J.J. Cale) He was there just to support and enjoy his friend.
