Sailing or Swimming












Warren asked if I caught a 'Pitch Pole' capsize in the Americas Cup race Warren, Gail, Lea, and Tyler attended recently.  The first image is just before the Oracle boat rounded the yellow marker boat and capsized.   Although, the capsizing occurred quite a ways off shore, the following is what I was able to capture, using the Nikon d800e, with the Nikon 400 f2.8 and a TC 1.4ii. No one was hurt and after they righted the boat the crew went on to win another race later in the day.
