Fantastic photos. A tip of the hat to the photographer(s). Thanks for posting the link to that site. I can't wait for our first race this May.

Large boats, large steep-sided waves, large spinnakers and close racing all make for pretty spectacular stuff.

I especially liked the shot of the one launching off a wave. The photographer must have been at least half-crazy to get some of those photos!!
