Photos from the Finish Line.

Sorry for the delay in getting these pictures up. We have a lot to do while the yachts are finishing and somethings are delayed. The posting of the photos from the finish line had to take a back seat to getting the dock side crew photos and arrival pages up.

While we would like to take photos of each yacht at the finish line this is not pratical or safe. Many of the yachts finish at night and going out in the dark is usually fruitless and dangerous. The use of flash photography on a finishing crew in the dead of night usually results in language that would result in my mouth being washed out with soap when I was a child. Who can blame the crew? They are in the process of stowing their sails and gear for the ride in and bright flashes are blinding.

What we have here is a collection of finish line photos taken by either Lisa Niemczura or Linda and Marston Myers. High resolution copies of any of these can be obtained from the source.
