Yeah...thanks Giulio, there was some really good light during the day and I was never shooting totally against the light from the sky which helped.

Was really good fun...at least from an onlookers POV...wind gusted to about 30kts regularly which led to a lot of capsizes!

The lake though has an average depth of only about 5' so in many cases the crew were able to stand up to help right their dinghies.

Several crews went over more than once over the four races.
