Post subject:  Pictures from the Columbia River Gorge Distance Race 2007

From contest-winning and catalog-covering Fleet 72 :)

Pictures are up here.

Unfortunately, we beat our photographers up to the A-mark (they drove up ahead on shore), and then beat them back down to the finish, so we don't have any pictures of the a-mark rounding, as we blast through a 505-dingy regatta (also sighted a hydrofoiling International Moth - looks like a LOT of balance!).

Props to the newbies who came out and braved the wind and waves, capsized twice during the race, turtled in the fun sail after the race, lost both rudders, and then came sailing in on the jib alone, using a paddle as a rudder.

Highlights:

The lineup.

Do we get a Portsmouth adjustment for hair?

Three 16's heading upwind.
