Congratulations to Amy Cox of Barbados for winning the Radial fleet at the 2014 Caribbean Laser Midwinters in Cabarete, Dominican Republic this weekend.
I stole the picture of Amy from Scuttlebutt. Isn't it just the perfect picture to explain why Laser sailing is so much fun and why many more attractive young ladies should participate in our sport?
Also from Scuttlebutt is this picture of a start at the same event, with #187944 Ari Barshi either pulling off a perfect pin-end start or perhaps a perfect OCS. Whatever!
My friend Peter Seidenberg was a very close second to Amy in the Radial fleet. I can't find any photos of him sailing, so I will just have to post this one of him (on the left) eating a hot dog at the Eze Bar on the first day of the regatta.
Isn't it just the perfect picture to explain why eating hot dogs and hanging out at the Eze Bar is so much fun and why many more attractive young ladies should participate in this sport?

Hey, is that Dominic from Jersey City in Laser 187944? Talk about a pin-end start! Brilliant.
Judging by the pictures of the racing on the caribwind.com site, there were several sailors called Dom in the fleet.
Yeah, that photo of Amy is great - and perfectly exemplifies how sailing a Laser can make anyone - of any physical age - feel.
Wel said KR. The more I look at it the more I think that this may be the best photo that I have ever seen in capturing the spirit of Laser sailing.
The photo originally comes from the Laser Training Center, Cabarete website caribwind.com but there does not seem to be a personal credit to the photographer there.
