Charleston Race Week Day 2 Melges 24 Practice Photos

DSC_2217Since racing was abandoned for Day 2 of Charleston Race Week 2011 for all fleets, several teams gearing up for the Melges 24 Worlds in a few weeks in Corpus Christi, TX decided to head out for practice. After all, a big breeze day in Charleston doesn’t even come close to a light air day in Corpus! Sail22 headed out with Ed driving while Becky took photos for the day thanks to Andrew from Protector and our sweet ride on the new Protector 25. The Full Photo Gallery from Day 2 of Charleston Race Week is now posted. Alec Cutler’s Hedgehog (BER 1), Brian Porter’s Full Throttle (USA 749), Alan Field’s WTF (USA 811), Kristen Lane’s Brick House (USA 812) and Bora Gulari’s Air Force One / New England Ropes ~ West Marine (USA 820) were all out having a blast. Definitely a great day on the water!

Charleston Race Week 2011 Favorites Photo Gallery

DSC_1819Charleston Race Week 2011 officially started today with great conditions and lots of racing. I made it out to cover all of the inshore courses and had a great ride with Andrew on Protector’s new 25 foot boat. It’s always wonderful to shoot from a Protector! Thanks again to Moose McClintock from Dimension Polyant for helping out with the blogging for Sailing Updates as well. He’ll be joining me on the water all weekend! Check out the Favorites Gallery I’ve started and will be adding to until the individual class and team galleries are ready for viewing.
