Sail Port Stephens Regatta

I went into Nelson Bay this morning to take photos of the Sail Port Stephens Regatta and this is a photo of some of the yachts lining up to start the race.

[Dawn]

Lovely to see

[Diana]

Wonderful capture of this beautiful line up of yachts, a scen I can never titre of.

Although we have never taken part in any races, we have sailed quite a few oceans in the world. The best time of our lives ;-)

[Valerie Chesney]

Calm seas & beautiful yachts ready to race.

[Issi Bannerman]

Lovely scene.

[Judith Johnson]

[Nigel Rogers]

Nice array of yachts

[Susan Wakely]

Oh it’s busy on the water.

[Joan Robillard]

That is a lot of sailboats.

[Peter]

What a wonderful image full of colour and light Babs:)

[Elisa Smith]

Great image.

[Dione Giorgio]

Lovely shot. There always seems to be a lot of confusion before the race starts. It's like that here too. I think the crews are testing the direction of the wind and the strength of it before the race actually begins.

[Peter Dulis]

lovely capture

[Wylie]

Beautifully lined up. There wasn't a breath of wind on the lake here yesterday and only one becalmed yacht.

[Renee Salamon]

Lovely line up

[Beryl Lloyd]

I so enjoy seeing sailboats. This photo has the blues and silvers and whites and blacks that make water photos so appeling to me.

[carol white]

A lovely scene

[Carole Sandford]

A grey image!

[Kate]

I guess they have to time it right to reach the starting line "on the fly."

The regatta is going on all week apart from Tuesday which was Anzac Day and today which is a lay day. They will be sailing tomorrow and over the weekend, so I may nip down and see if I can get more photos.
