A not-so-pretty day to sail, foggiest I've ever been in, very neat to be out there, though! These pics are <1/4 mile from land:

Great shots. Do you enter any regattas with your boat. I went in one this weekend but forgot the camera. LOL.
 
My boat is small, and not especially fast, so i usually just go out and follow the races on Tuesday night. I am going to do an around-the-island race Labor day weekend, which should be fun.
 
Here our average boat size is 22-30'. Just FW lakes around us. So regatta's with our 26' Mirage are usually a breeze. I love your pics while actually sailing, gives those who can't sail a perspective they wouldn't normally get.
