Mar 30, 2022

While its deep winter in Canada it’s fun to escape to the swaying palms and blue waters off Key West where the first-ever Southernmost Regatta saw some great action in January.

Here a strong pack of Melges 24s round a robotic mark in hot pursuit. I was set up just right to catch the action.
