I like this one from wivenhoe regatta a few years back, we snatched victory from the jaws of defeat half a mile from the finnish line.

I do like the tall ships, I sailed home from douarnenez some years ago when a couple of tallships sailed into a fog bank ahead of us, very eerie when all you can see is the very topsail.

No picture Im afraid, it was in 1996 and we were sailing home from the brest/douarnenez festivals, I wasn't into photography or cameras and we didn't all carry superb cameras on our phones back then.
The closest ship in the bottom pic is rather nice.
