Either the Laser or 29er, both great boat pictures.

Hey yes that's me and Mrs P in the 29er!

Maybe not the greatest pic ever ( but you have to be in it to win it - maybe you'll all enter great pics for next year's competition ).

Impressive trapezing on that angled bit tho. I'm always saying "get forward a bit" in light winds anyway, and it's done to perfection here.

A nice relaxed sailing pic that makes it look deceptively like anyone could do it - sort of achievable fun for a noobie.

*Must not rant about apauling pictures picked this year*

Meh.

Does the phrase "Best from a bad bunch" come to mind?

2 photos of boats not moving .. or hardly moving ... (How exciting, a tack.)
1 where you can't even SEE the boat (Hello, Boat show calling ... )
And one of a Laser .. I'll leave it at that.

*Shrugs* My entries were better. Naturally not biased, of course! (RS200s / Lasers / Toppers, sharp as you could ever want, spray eeeeverywhere .. Brilliant days sailing!!)

Maybe spray everywhere isn't what they were after... I am biased because they are old friends, but I do like the 29er one: its an unusual angle and the boat's being sailed nicely, making the whole trapeze/performance boat bit look nice and accessible instead of wild and impossible.
