Reminder - AYC Photo Album

Reminder that there are many (thousands) of high resolution photos on-line. Not just from this year, but going back for years. To view the photo album, go here: https://anchorageyachtclub.org/gallery3/index.php/ . Or click the photo album menu item in the left column.

Then, from there view albums by year, and many sub-albums. Most albums have many pages of thumbnail photos, look for the album page numbers at the bottom left.

When viewing an album, click on a thumbnail to view a photo, and then if a higher resolution photo is available click on it again, and sometimes click again for an even higher resolution photo.

Depending on your browser, you can usually "right click" on a photo to download it.

Do you have some great photos to share? Let us know and we'll get them in the album!

We found this on Sailing Anarchy. Click on the photo to enlarge. This is a picture taken of a wave crashing against the north pier at St. Joseph, MI last Wednesday, March 8 near sunset. For the fact junkies out there, the wind blew 40 knots, gusting 60 from the west with a fetch of only 51nm. The brown in the wave is sand pulled up from a depth of 20 feet. The lighthouse seen is 57 feet high with a rear range light at 53 feet. The 36 foot tall front range and light at the end of the pier can not be seen. Lake Michigan ain’t a place for wimpy sailors!
