Every once in awhile, we come across some extraordinary achievements by friends of the J/Community that ought to be recognized. "Kos" happens to be one of them. Back in 1991, Stu Johnstone was sailing his J/44 J-HAWK in the Spi Ouest Regatta in La Trinite Sur Mer. Working with Stu at the time to take care of J-HAWK was a young Englishman, Rick Deppe (see PUMA media site). Another friend came along and said a young English girl named "Kos" needed some help on a photo shoot. On a spectacular sunset evening after racing, Stu, Rick and Kos took off on J-HAWK to help Kos complete her photo assignment. Since then, Kos has grown KOS PICTURES into the principal photo library/ stock house for over 200 yachting/ sailing photographers around the world. To celebrate that talent, take a moment to appreciate this extraordinary J/80 photo.
