photos from Paul


Paul sent me these photos of Mosquito launching this morning, starting the race a little over two days after the official start of the race.  Considering the weather this weekend, waiting two days was probably the right thing to do.

The main is reefed in the photo below, Mosquito is showing just a bit of her 240 square feet of sail.  At some point I hope we see her with all sails flying.


Right now Mosquito is off of Siesta Key appears to be making good time.  That is Team B and B, the little speck on the left of the screen shot below.

Thanks for the photos, Paul.  Mosquito looks great.

The mainsail is in its reefed position.
