Spoke to Mike Rice at fotoboat and he is waiting for the CD with the rest of the pictures before he can load them onto the website.

Might have been a question of light or something... Where they were when some wind came through: all sorts of variables. Maybe some batches of photos worked better than others. The one Cherub shot looks pretty dull, yet we know there was enough breeze for a different Cherub to win the class... Its funny about photos. Since the digital revolution its all become so much easier. When I first set up the Cherub website, back in about 95 so probably before some of you were born, it was a real issue trying to get hold of some half decent photos to put on the website, what with copyright release and so on... I have I think one half decent photo of any of my boats from before 95, and any number since! Edited by JimC |

Sorry Bert but i don't agree, I have checked through both sets of photos and they are the same, (Y&Y from fotoboat) Both Y&Y and fotoboat only really show the Symmetric and single handed fleets. The Y&Y Photos have 1 picture of a cherub, 1 of the assy fleet start, 1 of a 400 and 1 of a Vareo. They hardly bear reference to the 50 odd assy boats which had their own fleet start. On the other hand there are loads of pictures of the foilers of which there were only 6-7 tops!!! Chunky pics have a only posted up pics of the foilers. Hardly seems like a fair cross section of the boats entered! |

No we weren`t,I was looking in the Y&Y photo Galley ( via the front page link ) & because you didn`t mention the Fotoboat selection,No one was to know otherwise. However the Y&Y should give a more varied selection due to the fact that they have already sold the pictures to the mag,Where fotoboat needs to sell to the owners,spectors & people who want an "all action " shot. Foilers,Assy`s,Trap`s all give the impression of speed & splendor where as hikeing boats rarely give this impression even though they are the more popular style of dinghy sold & sailed in the uk. This may explain the differant styles of photo`s found between Y&Y & Fotoboat.

After just looking at the photo galley I think that the main fleets all got a fair show of photos. Phantoms,Merlins,RS fleets all seem to have a fair share. Foiling moths/600`s,eye catching and people like to see foilers! - fair Assy boats didn`t seem to have more then their fair share of photos for my point of view. Feel free to disargee. |

Tell you whats pising me off! All of the photos from the event tend to be either from the foiling fleet (of which ther were 5 -7 boats) and the symetric fleet!!
