All quiet on the Tamar front: the fleet gently drifts across the start line as the horn sounds for the start of the midday race
A moment when paddleboarders moved considerably faster than any of the the racing dinghies: Robin Spiller is in front in clear air, but Jane Anderson is poised just behind, on her way to victory

Still little more than a drift at the start of the afternoon race, as the dinghies seek to find the gentle easterly zephyrs
But as the race developed, the long-awaited sea breeze finally arrived from a WNW direction, giving a broad reach/run all the way down from Pinky to Dam Green, with just a suspicion of a bow wave developing on Nathan Pollard’s Laser in the foreground

A nail-biting race on the final beat to the finish between the Solos of Adam Hilton and Paul Whybrow, the boats by now moving at a very respectable speed
No tears in a Tasar: Brian Pollard and Cilla Gilbert in good-humoured mood as they near the end of their race
