Heineken Regatta 2023 Photos

I'm lucky to be on the committee boat and be in a location where it is hard not to get some good pictures! I just finished culling the over 1000 pictures down to a manageable number and have put together a page with the picture grouped by day (and one group showing the volunteers at work). If you want to look at them, just click on the link below to visit the gallery.

Thanks for posting!! Will take time later to view them all!!

Thank you for the great, fantastic photos. Almost felt like I was there. Yes you did have a great vantage point for photos, I wouldn't have been able to put the camera down. As a former sailor, club racer, and a 15 year employee of a sailboat manufacturer I really appreciate your photo journalism and will be looking at the photos again in finer detail. Thanks again.

I was tempted to shoot video as well, but if that went wrong then I wouldn't have had pictures. Those big Volvos and somewhat smaller racers are very fast and impressive when coming by. And those close starts are accompanied by lots of shouting between the boats. This year we only had one collision, between some of the Melges and they fended each other off with feet and nobody bothered to file a protest, either.

WOW!! Great photos. Made me part of the action. Could of years ago all we got was from SMYC as the boats left.

Thanks!
