Joined the club boat yesterday and enjoyed watching the yachts race by.
I think catching the boats on the fore quarter angle emphasises the sense of movement.

Excellent detail in the downloads.
I particularly like the composition in the first photograph with the reflections of the sails on the water.
A good series of photograph’s, well taken.

For me, a sense of movement comes with the presence of white water, like a bow wave created by that movement. Your last photo has that, and gets my vote, but it needs some more room to sail in to. JMHO.

Thanks for your comments.
Re bow wave... I get your point. There was not a heap of wind but if there were the water would not have been as smooth.
But something to look for next time.
Regarding room to sail into... I suppose that would suggest the shot should follow the 'off centre' rule. Good point.
