Race Week at Whidbey Island 2011


Over 100 boats are participating in this year's Race Week.  The tide was out so the boats were well away from the historic Coupeville Wharf.  The clouds did a good job of hiding Mt. Baker too.

Race Week at Whidbey Island



A great place to watch the race is from the Coupeville Warf. Coupeville is a popular tourist destination with its historic main street.

The second view is looking back to Coupeville with the Olympic Penninsula in the distance.

This view is from San de Fuca, showing the historic dock and the number of boats involved (around one hundred). In the distance are the Cascade Mountains.

The sun came out, the breezes blew and the boats raced. While the race is sponsored by the Yacht Club in Oak Harbor, the races occur in Penn Cove, close to Coupeville.
