A few odd ones that show close passes.

 

The following 2 pictures the yachts had tacked onto the vessel I was on. We were was not racing and had to take action to avoid them.

Just after this pic was taken the tug needed to pull on the tow line - a short toot on the horn to warn the yachts and those that needed too tacked early - Thank You :thumbup:

Nice photos Rigger, it was quite busy out there. We were in front of you in the tug - I suspected you might have been the one with the camera. We were in front of you as you came up beside the wharf. As you were going slowly and could go straight into the wind I thought that was the best you could do, thanks. If we were to avoid you we would have had to go in front of the ship that was leaving. So thanks for considering us and the rest, cheers.
