Adam Hilton and John Dabbs get away clear in the first race of the Sailboat Series
Quite a good number of boats for a very windy day in April
The fleet rounds the first mark at Home 2 and starts the beat towards West Wight, across the windiest part of the lake; Adam Hilton’s Bosun still holding onto the lead
James Pollard planing at speed on the reach back towards the Dam
Nice action shot as Simon Veal’s three-up Bosun puts in a tack
Looks relatively peaceful (temporarily) as James Pollard and Jane Anderson cross the line at the start of the afternoon race
A contrast in angles of heel in the two Bosuns: Simon Veal’s leans to the wind whilst behind, club Bosun the ‘Mike Ford’ stays bolt upright as helm Nicky Buckett opts for a gentler approach on the bea
Probably the best shot of the day as James Pollard has to hike out hard even on the reach
