Always a bit of lop off Anvil even with a sheltered wind.Poole Bay looked interesting.Once that was cleared, a reasonable run to St.Albans.
My Pleasure II doing his daisy cutting routine as usual.That`s the first time he has completely vanished under the cliffs.
Mr.Davies chopper darting about over Poole Bay like a thing possessed,but low this time,so some air sucking shots no doubt.

Thanks Graham!
But you almost risked tumbling into the cockpit of my Pleasure to photograph it?
FPT, ex Rolly Go, ex Luchaire, ex Cesa 1882, rx Gancia dei Gancia, ex Techno, ex Super Hawaii as Buzzi did write in the stern,always go with his gleefully made his first.
Now it is Sunday.
Hopefully not fall asleep before the finish.

Good shots!
The best that of our Jon in action. But where he was in Capri?
The Pantera 41' seems to be a good mono.
How do you think you see it go?

Never let a wave or two get in the way of a half decent shot ...
Got some reasonable footage of Fury as we ran along the fleet down to the Start

The Pantera was fairly trucking along with Cinzano up it`s arse,although Cinzano came to a halt off Anvil on way down to Shambles,but soon got going again,then I see it was not in the first three,so more trouble I expect.
Fury retired off Anvil and at one point headed straight for the cliffs,engines howling like mad before getting back on track to retire back to Poole Bay.
That 36` Dry Martini is not race ready,so will be lounging around Cowes for the weekend.

Like the Needles race,too much shelter from the beach with a Nor Easter,but there is more often than not some sea running once you get to Anvil.Pity the Historics weren`t running.

On the pictures from FLYING FISH the one of carbon neutral the stb engine is trimmed up alot further than the Port. is that for triming? I thought if it had counter rotating gear boxs it should ride fairly flat. Non racer question so dont bite me.

Anyone know where the start is on Sunday as I have heard its At Cowes & also Hurst, difficult to be in two places at the same time.
Best wishes to all competing and the marshall boats, have a great day.
