The Battle of North Bay: Ross and John pursue Dave and Carol.

A nice gybe for Carol and Dave

Ross and John decide to hold port - as I would. Then they'll be inside and starboard if they meet the Hansmans near the mark.

With the Taylors long gone, John (l) loosely covers Dwight (2nd from right) to protect his 2nd. In the distance, Alastair is just rounding onto the final beat a comfortable 4th, while  Frank (648) has nicely defended the left side of the run against Al (3854) and should round 5th. Al Nichols (r) sits a clear 7th.   - for full-size pic, click here

John and Dolores have crossed in 2nd place while Dwight and Pat are just
