They certainly are poetry!

Any ideas of where I could find it?
Thank you in advance.

A Word file probably best as my copy will be in that. But maybe by pdf as well. Very grateful for your attention. Misprint in my post – yacht PARI is 40 metres; not 49m.

I want to extract the two symbols for “stranded wreck” and “dangerous wreck” for an article in next Riviera Reporter about a 49m motoryacht on the rocks for last 3 weeks here.
