North Americans Sunday pics: race 4 photos by Nick Seraphinoff |
Brian (9235) and
Al
(3854) contest the pin end as the gun is about to go. ... |
Looks like both
will
start in clear air. Mark (7673) and John (7351) seem to
be nicely
lifted in a puff. ... |
Roger (7700) and
Jennifer (864) in a close battle near the windward mark. ... |
Going
onto the run, it
was a virtual dead heat between Mark and Al. The
latter (red spi) will
again go low once the spinnaker is set. Here, Al has
just finished the
hoist and is now taking both sheets so that he can get
the spinny
flying while Frank adds the pole gently. Brian (r)
who needs to
beat Al to remain in the title hunt is lying 3rd.

As Brian and
Scott
start their run, Jennifer (864) on port meets John on
starboard. ... |
Getting ready for
the
hoists: (l to r) Geoff, Bob, Mike - the latter should have his main fully out before he does anything else!! ... |
Frank
and Al on their
way up the second beat. They will hold their lead and
defend their
North American title successfully. Mark and Paul
Taylor will place 2nd
in this one, while Brian and Scott take 3rd. Jennifer
Princing started
her W career with a solid 4th-place finish ahead of
Roger Shepherd.
