Does anyone know the name, website or contact details of the photographer bobbing around in an orange RIB just past the needle on Saturday morning. He took a few pics of us as we went passed and I'd love to get a copy. Having good pics of ones own boat sailing is rare.

Thanks in advance

One of the photography boats was severley impacted by a catamaran in the race.
The photographer was taking a picture of Nautica, new Clipper 70 at the time with the crew shouting and pointing "Behind you."
The impact almost certainly caused whip lash if nothing else.

I'd be great if there was a list of all the photographers that were out during the race. - Can anyone name the chap who was in the little blue RIB in the western solent,- I'm sure he got a cracking shot of us with the chute up...

Probably Paul Wyeth - http://www.pwpictures.com/

He hasn't put his RTI pics up yet, but almost certainly will at some stage this week. Lovely bloke to deal with too, we have a number of his!

I was snapping photo's whenever the opportunity allowed. What was your sail number/spinniker colour/boat name. I may have taken one of you.

Thanks Gareth,

I think I have solved the riddle...

sailingscenes.co.uk was in a black RIB
boatphotos.co.uk was in the sunseeker
Both were hovering around the needles throughout the race and, at the point of writing this, neither have managed to completely upload their shots yet. Thanks for all your help though.

I was out in a blue and orange RIB with another photographer in that vicinity for a couple of hours, we were specifically there to catch our own boats but snapped a few others when there were gaps between ours.
Which boat where you? ( name, type, hull color, sail number)

EDIT

Sorry just seen your earlier post with sail number and hull decsription, had a look through my images and NOT GUILTY, sorry

Thanks for looking anyway. I've trawled all of the sites (i think) but no luck, I just have to do it again next year!
