So at the beginning of September I was invited to shoot the Bullseye National Regatta hosted out of Saunderstown Yacht Club here on Narragansett Bay. Bullseyes are the fiberglass equivalent of the Herreshoff 12 1/2, wonderful little daysailers with a competitive edge.
After some rainy weather, the sky cleared up for a wonderfully warm and sunny weekend of sailing! It was most likely the last truly summery days of the season and we were all so happy to be out on the water. Competitors came from Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and even one from the midwest to compete in this friendly competition of 17 boats. After a weekend of sailing and socializing, the regatta winner was the Collins family, proudly representing their home & host yacht club, SYC!
