Thumbs up PICS!! Ponce Offshore Cup!! Puerto Rico Offshore Series

Dic 6 we had our Ponce race and what a test of endurance it was. Seas where from 6 to 8 feet and very windy. Course was shortened but ultimately the race officials decided to raised the black flag in the third lap because conditions where getting rougher. Here's a couple of photos courtesy of Carlos G. Lee of Majaderos.com



If somebody can upload the pics I will send them. pls pm me

WOW!

That is some nasty water to be racing in, thanks for letting us see the race conditions. Great shoots.

The P&D 24 you see in the last set is my boat. I finish making the boat a week before the race and soon I will be posting photos of the project from beginning to what is today!
