perhaps small recognition each month for best photo presented by 'members' and small recogniton for the best caption would get you chaps 'off the hook'?

Hi Scotty. We already give a prize for the best picture every month: the winner gets a BoatArt canvas of the winning picture, as voted for by TMS members. I am sure we could find an additional "small recognition" for pictures used in caption competition, as well as a prize for the best caption. Good idea. Do you want to start the ball rolling?
