Hesper won the event. There was the most fantastic finish to the first race. Four boats line abrest going for the finish line. All crossed the line within seven seconds of each other. I didn't get any pictures of it but hopefully someone, somewhere did.
 
Sunday morning would have been good. Unfortunately the race was in the afternoon when the breeze had died down a bit and there was quite a steep chop out in the bay that really knocked the wind out of the sails. They were still two great races though. A better fleet than the Classics has managed to produce for many a year.
 
I'm afraid I failed to get any pictures of this years racing. Only got onto the water on Sunday after the race had finished.

I can tell you though that Cornubia was the outright winner, and won the passage race as well.

BCPC boats there were Cornubia, Peggy and Mascotte.

Is there any chance of seeing Carlotta attending at any time in the future?
