Directors Cut; YouTube, St, 2007 Classic Moth Midwinters

A slideshow about the 2007 Classic Moth Midwinters was my second YouTube video. I've gotten better at using Adobe Elements and figured out how to add music. Music was by a local Baltimore/Washington ska band "The Players". I twice saw them perform live. Great band. Pictures were taken by Amy Linton.

The 2007 Midwinters was the first one to be held at Gulfport YC, St. Petersburg FL. and featured good breezes on Saturday (around 20 knots) and much lighter on Sunday (around 5 knots).



For those who wonder why all the hulls look different it's because the class is a development class where you design within a box rule (11' LOA,  5' Beam, 75 lbs. hull weight and a max 1" hollows restriction on hull shape aft of the Daggerboard trunk to prevent wings or catamarans).

For those who like names attached to sail numbers;

64 - Joe Bousquet
71 - Walt Collins
79 - Mike Parsons
92 - Tweezerman
93 - Rod Koch
102 - Jeff Linton
107 - Greg Duncan
2000 - John Zseleczky

There are also close up shots of brothers, Mark and Craig Saunders as well as Derek Dudinsky.
