  Carp Fishing   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
More often than not the carp is returned to the water after being caught and photographed with the angler that caught it.
Even in fast moving water, carp can be easily startled by movement, such as an overhead cast line or the landing of a fly in the water.
Carps up to 64 lbs have been captured by anglers and carp bigger than that have been observed but remain.

 Greater Underwater Propulsion Power Program - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Some boats with a Portsmouth Sail had an SV-radar and needed extra room to house the screen, thus had a bulge at the sail top.
Later modifications put the SS or SS2 radars on these and other boats which had a smaller screen and had an indicator with interlocks which allowed the mast to be housed only with the screen in certain angular positions.
Also, some GUPPY II and GUPPY III boats had their sails extended higher above the waterline, the "Northern Sail," to raise the bridge, allowing it to be manned in more severe weather.
