The Puget Sound Sailing Championships
were held in October off Seattle, Washington. Sailing in this year's
event were an enormous cross-section of J's big and small, from the
bright-red J/22 called JINX to the beautiful flag-blue J/160 called JAM.
Snow-capped peaks are a common backdrop in the Pacific Northwest, as
seen here at the 2011 Puget Sound Sailing Championship with this
gorgeous J/29 sailing upwind on port tack with the sunny Cascade
Mountains behind them. It was a spectacular day of sailing despite the
fact the forecast was lousy at best. You can see many more pretty
photos by Jan's Marine Photography here.
