San Francisco Yacht Club Pre Race

Melges 32 in Rolex Big Boat Series 2008

I’ll be shooting the Melges 24 National Championship Series, San Francisco event March 7 and 8.

I look forward to adding to my growing collection of panoramic sailing photographs.

Last year I shot the Rolex Big Boat Series, the Leukemia Cup, and the arrival and journeys of the fabulous Maltese Falcon in San Francisco Bay.

This photo is of some of the Melges 32’s in the Big Boat Series.
