Aye aye Tom, many thanks. I seem to have a slight difficulty getting these binoculars to focus properly. They're ok when looking at the horizon, but anything close to and they seem to develop a little shaky double vision. When we dock I will nip ashore and find a service agent to check that there isn't a loose prism.
