1. I use to love sailing but alas another hobby by the wayside. A trimaran was on the list but life got in the way

I had a few beach cat's and did some monohull racing.. Great fun.
Great pic's btw...tnx

2. That sure looks like fun. Used to sail a lot but had to sell the boat -

slip fees and maintenance just got too expensive . I loved sailing, though; really miss it.

4. Was a blast!

I'd sailed in the "Bear" before, but this was a 40+ mile trip each way...twist my arm

5. Great photos, justaprogressive!

I've watched portions of America Cup television programming - so fast and dangerous without a fast, smart, knowledgeable team.

Curses, foiled again:

9. Wow, my dear justaprogressive! I just love these photos.

Every shot tells a story. I can feel the wind blowing across the sails and feel the boat pitching and tossing! Wonderful!

Thank you so much for sharing these.
