Australia Day Regatta 2018 - John Jeremy Photos

 


Once again we owe John Jermy a thank you for permission to post these shots of Margaret Rintoul.


Margaret, reaching in flat water and light air...





















Broad Reaching, we love it... That's GT's new Adams 10 in the background...



























Now it's a bit harder, to windward with only a No 2...






































Ah... running again that's more like it...





























Working again with J Morton's Eventide to windward



























Being chased around the buoy by Jimmy Hardy's  Nerida... an old rival...



























The Crew: Bruce Gould Helm, John Brooks Main, John Moorcroft Genoa, John Saalfeld Genoa, Nina Saafled, Prue Gould, Kaye Brooks, Yeve Moorcroft, and two others...

Australia Day Regatta 2011 - From this regatta, we have contributions from several sources.

A mix of pictures from the regatta, some from John Jeremy and others from my camera or that of John Brooks, for which many thanks.  PK



















Margaret motoring around the committee boat prior to the start.
Crew: Bruce Gould Helm, John Brooks Main, John Moorcroft and PK on Geona and foredeck, Prue, Kaye and Yeve on trim and drinks...




















A close up of the crew...




And off we go seen here crossing Nigel Stoke's  Fidelis while chasing Hearts Ease...




Margaret, just ahead of Hearts Ease to windward and abaft...



After the ball... the drinks arrive... and the gear is furled...


The winners are grinners (we think)






A decent-sized Gin...





Brooksy, resting after a long squawk on the main...


Hard to separate a man and his Ginger Ale...



Nigel and Fidelis up close...




Fidelis crew "Resting after a hard day on the water"...





SANA, under full canvas, getting ready for the start...





Tenacity RSYS, getting ready for a day's sail...





Cherub RSYS...



Gitana RSYS, holding station as the committee boat.




Anita V SASC, a frendly rival...



Perhaps the 12 Meter VIM...








Another SASC classic competitor...





Jimmy Hardy's Nerida under full canvas... 





Nerida making slow going in a light breeze...

Australia Day Regatta, John Jeremy Photos Ⓒ 






Another sparkling day and a good start up the harbour in a southwester

Sprinting away on a broad reach and all the crew below...




 



Bruce managing it all by himself...






At last, some of the crew are on deck...



No one can resist the camera...

John Moorcroft and Prue Gould are on deck for the photograph...

Note we're still missing a Mizzen Boom...
