Boats still getting to the start line too early, not helped by the fact that the wind had swung and made the start into something approaching a broad reach, so that slowing down was nearly impossible for helms
The front of the fleet ghosts almost to a standstill as they approach Inlet White, with a line of Lasers closing up on Jane Anderson; Robin Spiller is going well in the interloper Streaker at the end of the file
Heading up the lake towards Pinky; nice to see Stuart Mealing out on the water in his Laser, second from left
Similar line of approach for the start of the second race, but with rather more wind; Steve Axford having to bear away downwind from the line in the foreground
A cluster of boats beating up the lake on starboard; nice to see Raily Graham out and going well in her Topper (But note in the background, Jane Chadney, also on starboard, has found a huge lift and seems to be heading at almost 90 degrees to the other boats)
Roger Heasman, having an excellent afternoon race in his Streaker, rounds Dam Green, with Penny Abbott in the background
Vicki giving Raily some helpful directions
Nice head-on shot of Jane Anderson holding off Steve Axford as they prepare to harden up round Dam Green
