Adam’s Solo capsized in the background (with mastop buoyancy to stop inverting) whilst the fleet are lining up at the start
Heading downwind for what was probably an awkward gybe at Middle in the unpredictable gusts
Jane Chadney just ahead of Roger Heasman in a momentarily calm patch as they bear away round Dam Green
Start of the afternoon race, with Jane Anderson’s Topper apparently stealing a march on the rest of the (now smaller) fleet
The two Bosuns just ahead of John Weller helming the Enterprise as the trio head for Dam Red
The trio of Toppers, with Adam Hilton’s Solo keeping them company, Tamar’s pine-clad ‘cliff’ in the background
Brian Pollard and a returning-after-injury Cilla Gilbert on their way to a first place across the line (and an impressive third on handicap)
The suddenness and intensity of the gusts illustrated by this shot of the red-hulled Bosun, with the gunwale almost in the water despite sailing three-up (and with Toby and Sally hiking out) and with Otter sails
