At the leeward mark, the four leaders are still pretty close: (l to r) Peter, David, Mark and Al just being crossed by Mark

The gamble for Al (10864): Sue and I agreed that in this kind of winds, the left had been known to pay so we tacked to go left.
We felt bad when we saw that we had inadvertently "sat on" Kit.

Mike Duncam was still ahead of us. But even had we been able to "starboard" him we would have tried to avoid doing so
since the last thing we wanted was for him to tack and lee-bow us.

Also heading left was Mark.

Peter and Alex follow our good example.

Mike and Marg continue up the middle.

As he passes the start/finish area, Mike looks over his shoulder to check out the competition to the left.
