Bristol Cup Regatta, weekend of October 24, 2009

Fleet panorama; in the distant left can be made out Constellation (under chute) and Black Magic; in center is the Freedom 21 Free and Clear IV, and at right are the J/24s White Vang and Kachina. Not shown in this view are the J/24 Oso , the Etchells Caliente (which sailed on Saturday), and boats from the cruising fleet, which hadn't yet started their race.

Etchells USA 38, Constellation under spinnaker in light breezes.


Etchells Caliente with "Penzance" and "Car Guy" on board.


Etcehlls Black Magic under chute -- and it's time to shake out that twist!
