A shame I do not have these pictures anymore.

Analogical pictures from 1988-where there was Cutty Sark Tall Ship Race in Karlskrona - Sweden

I toke about 3-400 picture with my camera.

I have always had a weak heart for these beauties.

Time lapse video I shot a few years on a very calm day of RC yacht racing. All wind powered Soling 1m boats.

And the AC75 for the next America's Cup has me pretty excited. The 34th Cup was a blast to watch, but I found the 35th to be fairly boring, as the SailGP series had very similar boats, and moving it to Bermuda killed a lot the draw for me. But these new boats for the next one really have me stoked.
