Last Saturday (1st June) we took a boat out to watch the annual race round the Isle of Wight. 1459 yachts race from Cowes with the fastes doing it in under three hours (Olympic Gold medallist Ben Ainslies set a new record of 2 hrs 52 minutes 15 secs - whilst the last boat to finish took just under 13 hours!
Anyway, here are a first selection of the images I took from our workboat which stayed off The Needles until the fleet had passed.

C&C welcomed.
Niall, great first shot, in very nice trim, making it look easy, the others are working harder, don't let Steve Z see these you will wet his appetite for the America's Cup in San Fran, I hear there is a new Kiwi bar & restaurant on the start finish line, but that might not be close enough,
