Regatta Images
The first weekend dinghy regatta of the 2013/14 sailing season is done and dusted.
To see the race reports and results:
Once again I took lots of ‘happy snaps’ over the course of two days and the deal with the images is as follows:
- I will place images that have been reduced in size on the computer in the bar area
- You are free to bring your own memory stick and copy them
- If you want the original images then let me know
- All I ask in return is that you put a tip in my bar account – Alan Straton
Here is a small sample of images that you can also see on the ABYC Flickr Gallery:
