Pictures from Ayre's Pond Regatta

I just received some pictures from my friend Roland who attended the Ayre's Pond Regatta this past weekend. He and his friend John Kelsey sailed a Marshall Sanderling among a hundred other Catboats. Great fun with fellow sailors on the water. 

"Ahoy, Charley!
Just back from two days sailing in the Arey's Pond Regatta......nearly 100 catboats! More than I ever expect to see again in one place at one time. Lots of fun. Here are a few photos from the day with friend John Kelsey aboard his Sanderling. I'm sure your gimlet eye will pick up some details....like sails luffing in very light airs."

John "don't sweat the trim", just ask Roland.
