Hamilton Island Race Week 2012 Crosbie Lorimer http://www.crosbielorimer.com
The creme de la creme of IRC racing is all here for Race Week and the competition as close as you might expect. Top mark roundings are like those of one design fleets and yesterday's IRC finish off the Island Yacht Club had Yendys, Shogun and Hooligan finishing within 30 seconds of each other after four hours racing.

Here are some of Crosbie Lorimer's images of the racing.
