Dear Sailors, Thank you for attending the 2013 NBJR/Area A Qualifier for the Bemis Trophy. I hope you had fun and got some great sailing in too! The day ended a bit wet on Saturday with heavy downpours but Sunday proved to be favorable with the wind filling in and all fleets getting in at least 2 or 3 additional races. Professional photographer Fran Grenon with Spectrum Photo was on the course both Saturday and Sunday. You can view and purchase photos at: http://spectrumphotofg.ifp3.com/#/page/home/. Click on the NBJR 2013 tab at the top of the page and then choose the file of the photos you would like to view. Files are organized by date and fleet. On Saturday only, NBYC member Peter Van Colen was on the course with his camera. You can view his photos at www.decfoto.com, look under 2013 regattas. It was our pleasure to host the NBJR and we hope you will come back next year. Best wishes to all for a successful and fun racing season. Sincerely, Paula Walsh Kuphal NBJR Chair 2013 ...
