Here are a few more from the BHI Regatta.

I hate Picasa

I really do...

switching to Flickr, maybe

We got great views of almost all the boats as they passed.

Josh,

That's the best part of the pursuits. We actually get to see the front end of most of the boats. The more I participate! the less behind I get. This year's goals were to start on time and to finish. We like to bring new to sailing people with us to share the enjoyment. When they are on the tiller, we do slip back a bit, but we do have an enjoyable time!

John,

I agree, it was pretty awesome to be sailing along with all the cruising boats for a while and then seeing all the competition breeze by. We too were happy to cross the line twice without mishap.

Josh, thanks for the pictures! Here are some that we got from Christine C:

Image
On top of the world, ahead of lots of boats, shortly after the start [remember, it's a pursuit race :)]

Image
After the race, three sweet CDs, Lightfoot (furthest), Liquidity (right most) and Christine C (from her deck).

Another fun time!

Jeff
