Jon Deutsch is becoming quite the photographer

Photographer Jon Deutsch is a laser sailor out of Fishing Bay Yacht Club. Whenever there wasn't Laser sailing going on, he always found himself at the club helping out with race committee at whatever regatta happened to be going on. He toted a camera with him and tried to snap a few pictures to show the folks who didn't come how much fun they were missing. That's how he got into photography. He's recently photographed events such as the US Laser Masters, Optimist Nationals, Flying Scot ACC's and the Chesapeake Bay Laser Masters. Jon, welcome to photoGray

Fawcett Boat Supplies 2005 International 505 East Coast Championship--Alden Bugly's photoGray

31 October 2005

Good Morning,

The Fawcett Boat Supplies 2005 International 505 East Coast Championship held last Friday, Saturday, and Sunday 28, 29, and 30 October drew 33 boats from Maryland, San Diego, Ottawa Canada, Florida, Ohio, and New England. Jon Deutsch captured the action in wonderful photos you can see by clicking here.

Nothing rubs a 505 sailor the wrong way more then to tell them it isn't a tactical boat....In one of the seven races of the regatta the Bixby/Boothe team (they won the regatta) was first around the weather mark. They set a chute and headed way low of the reach mark, the next mark. "Didn't they see the reach mark?" I said to myself. "Is this going to be a colossal blunder? Did they think their next mark was the leeward mark?" Read more of my narrative here.
