Morning everyone !
Many thanks for your comments and clicks on yesterdays' ZAPCAT image, very much appreciated.
Here is a sequence of three crash shots - thankfully nobody was hurt in this one ! It tickled me when I saw the words ' HELP ' on the bottom !
BEST LARGE IF YOU HAVE TIME !

Wow, you are fully entertained Chris! Excellent action series, lovely catamarans! My fav is the third one.
Gabriel
Excellent Chris. I dont think they need help some how! 
Carol
The build up to V3 is certainly a worthy approach but the Finale is superb action
Rick
Awesome action...
I guess the help under makes sort of sense
Oooops! Glad no one was hurt, water can be hard at that speed. Superb set of action images.
Barbara
three stunners chris brilliant detail and colour v2 for me today nice one

What a brilliant set, Chris, capturing what looks as if it could have been a rather nasty situation so well. I'd be no use at this sort of thing and can only admire those, like yourself, you can capture a moment such as this in such detail. I note the occupants of the second craft are looking back and not where they are headed.

Thanks Ronnie - I think they were relieved that they did'nt land on them.

Wonderful sequence of images brilliantly captured, thankfully no one was hurt..
Ma;
Great series Chris. I'm pleased to hear that they were all right.
James
excellent set all worthy of upload in their own right - V3 could be a fave for me
Hi Cris a super shot love the HELP on the bottom of the boat gray
Wow Chris these are wonderful shots so well timed
Lillian
Fantastic sequence Chris, some of the best action shots i've seen in a while.
V1-V3 all great shots.
Very well captured.
Regards Ricky.
Would you class photography as a dangerous sport? No - then I am relieved because I'll stick with it. These three images, however, make me cringe. Wonderfully sharp and full of action, marvellous.
Help is the right word.

Morning Chris, WOW what a superb set of action shots, beautifully captured and very well timed.
Hugh
I do like this cracking serie and it is great with the person turning his head to watch the outcome
Peter
cracking action image chris ,love the looking back shot ,just checking eh...lol
What a bonus Chris. This is what we hope for as long as no one is hurt in any way shape or form.
Another three superbly timed and captured images, Chris.
Roy
Three great action shots - very nice timing - the help sign made me chuckle
Great sequence of action shots, Chris...the 'Help' underneath made me smile, too! Brilliant timing.
TrevB
3 excellent action shots Chris, wonderful timing,
Geoff.
Wonderful photography Chris. This deserves to be recognised. Great action photography that is crystal sharp. Not easy at the focal length you must have had to use. Stunning.

Thanks Dave - As you know I love all types of photography, but especially anything fast moving.
Sunday could'nt have been a more enjoyable day - lots of sunshine. trousers rolled up over the knees, stood in the sea all day with my favourite 100-400 with a X2, and great action to photograph .... sheer bliss. (Although my arms have ached a bit since after holding that weight all day) but well worth it ! Looking forward to the next race !
I only caught this crash out of the corner of my eye, and just turned and shot - was delighted when I got home to find I had caught eight consecutive shots from begining to end. So a good day !
Thanks again Dave
Chris
Brilliant timing and delightful detail - great series of shots - Chris and pleased no one got hurt - Ina
