Asunto: [Leica] On the Race Committee Boat

Our race committee boat has an alternate life as a work boat and tug so
there's no spit and polish, but we do pride ourselves on running races
professionally.

We often use drop marks to set the course.  Here the weather mark comes up
after the race.

Consulting the rule book.  The we had seen a really nasty foul between a
couple of boats at the start and were looking for the rule  
that allows the Committee to protest the miscreants.  We found it.   
Both boats were DSQ.

All K10D, 10-20mm Sigma zoom at 10mm or close to it, ISO 400, f6 or so at
about 1/1500th.

BTW, I'm about out of the summer's sailing shots.  My next posting will
probably be the last of them until next year.  Then it's back to land-based
photography unless I get some good stuff next weekend.

Comments always welcome.

Regards,

Dick
