    And to think Terri doesn't want me to buy one of those cause she thinks they're too dangerous.....

    Still don't understand why race coordinators insist on setting up courses so close to rocks & shore. From experience, this is a ticking safety timebomb. And I don't think this was just a bad camera angle.

    Those are some great shots! Good to hear all are OK. I have to agree about the proximity to the shoreline and rocks, someone's gonna get hurt sooner or later. Also, where are all the spectators? If the racing was that close, I'd be right there on those rocks
