Paul Whybrow gets his Solo away clear at the start of the midday Tamar race, ahead of a tightly-packed cluster of boats
Seconds later, Roger Heasman and Cilla Gilbert have suddenly appeared to windward of the fleet and shot ahead, having blanketed the boats below them
The leading boats just starting to heel to the wind as they emerge into West Bay from the sheltered water by the pontoon; Roger’s club Bosun leads from Adeney Pooler’s Graduate, who has shot through from the back of the fleet, with the Solos of Paul Whybrow and Adam Hilton just behind
Linda Spiller’s Comet at speed on a run from West to Middle in the foreground, whilst in the background, some of the fleet negotiate the sometimes-tricky gybe at Far
Jane Chadney gets her Laser 4.7 up onto the plane on the same leg of the course
Bob Sampson, on a charge that took him from one of the late starters to become eventual winner of the Pursuit Race, passes Adam Hilton to windward
Roger Heasman and Cilla Gilbert close in on Nathan Pollard’s Topper, whilst James Pollard, the final starter in the Pursuit, is still almost a lap behind, attempting to make up the huge deficit
Great picture of James Pollard, in his full-rig Laser, in a cloud of spray as he planes past Home 2 buoy on the windiest part of the lake
