Additional tip:  Do not gloat when viperman is swimming at the top mark, the seven seconds you are giggling are the seven seconds you might lose by.

This just might be the picture of the day on Saturday, maybe the picture of the weekend...
I thought last years picture (see earlier in this thread) was awesome.

Check out "Spanky" Jones and his winning singlehanded spinnaker form, Viper style, all the way from Austin.

At least he waited to do the victory roll after the race...

Congrats on the win!

Good job "Spanky"...  (Jeff you had to be there Sunday night to know where you acquired that one)

that pic makes me feel so much better...

[Jonsey]

I'd vote for this as the picture of the day - saturday.

Big smiles - sailing should be THIS much fun! 

Not sure if you saw what they brought out, but it was a long... bumpy ride home for spanky.

Well they are all loaded.  Great place to start!

good point Alan... especially when someone hangs wht windward mark, backs up, does turns, rounds the mark, sets the chute, & STILL BEATS YOU DOWNWIND!!!
