The article mentions the ship the "William H. Albury" which I know from sailing on it was opperated under The Boy Scouts of America's Bahama Sea Base High Adventure program. My crew in late summer 2009 was the last crew to sail on it under that name; it was sold to be converted into a pirate themed day cruise.

I am making several changes to this page as some things are incorrect/outdated.Minorhacks (talk) 18:46, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I added a photo of a couple Abaco Dinghies built by Joe Albury on Man-O-War Cay to this article. Regarding permission to use the photo, I took it last year (on MOW next to Joe's Studio) and uploaded it today to Wikimedia Commons under CC-BY-SA 3.0. Regarding copyright of the contents of the photo (the dinghies), although the existing text of this article refers to the Abaco Dinghies as "work of art", I (respectfully) suggest that may be a bit of dramatic license. I suspect they are covered under "Utility objects" in http://commons.wikimedia.orgview_html.php?sq=Qlik&lang=&q=Commons:Image_casebook#Utility_objects and http://commons.wikimedia.orgview_html.php?sq=Qlik&lang=&q=Commons:Applied_art#Isn.27t_every_product_copyrighted_by_someone.3F_What_about_cars.3F_Or_kitchen_chairs.3F_My_computer_case.3F . However, and just as a matter of courtesy, I asked Joe if it was OK if I used a photo of his dinghies in this article and he said that was fine with him.
