Hello and
welcome to MoFoTo.co.uk
Bet you've
been to a sailing event and spotted a good photo of yourself, only to
be told that the price will give you a severe pain in the wallet. Yes?
Us too, so we started MoFoTo - to provide yachters with good quality,
affordable photos.
At each
event we move around the fleet(s) in our own RIB which means that we
get to see, and photograph, the whole fleet - not just the front runners.
We're also on the water for the whole of an event - not just a couple
of days - so if we don't get you on the first day, don't worry, we'll
get you eventually. We'll photograph anything that happens on the water
- the good, the bad and the downright ugly. So if you do decide to do
something 'dramatic' please wait 'til we're nearby.
If you
want a specific photo of your boat on a particular point of sail you
only have to ask and we'll do our level best to get it for you. You
will find at least one, but usually all three, of us loitering about
after racing and well into the evening!
The MoFoTo
team is:
PHOTOGRAPHER
- MO RAINEY
Mo has been taking photos for years. To stop him boring Ballyholme yacht
club with his holiday photos he was persuaded to take photos of something
the club members were actually interested in. He has been sailing since
1990 in yachts ranging from catamaran dinghies to 45ft racing yachts.
This experience of yachts and yachting enables him to take more interesting
and entertaining action photographs.
RIB
DRIVER - COLIN JAMISON
Colin (formerly known as JAMBO) is an experienced yachtsman having sailed
in everything from Cadet dinghies to 45ft racers. Colin has been driving
rescue boats for 30 years and is RYA qualified to instructor level.
All this means he can put Mo in good positions for photography without
endangering or obstructing anyone.
RIB
DRIVER - TERRY SWANSTON
Terry is an even more experienced yachter than Mo or Colin - mostly
because he's so much older. Terry has sailed in everything from dinghies
to offshore racers. He has been driving rescue boats for longer than
anyone can remember so he too can put Mo in those hard to get to places
without annoying anyone.
We are
all active members of Ballyholme Yacht Club and would like to take this
opportunity to thank BYC for all their help.
See you
out there!
Mo, Colin
& Terry
