This is not cruising related, but ...
For anyone that would like to see some Alberg 30's underway and racing, Brian Palmer, crew on LinGin (A30 #244), recorded one of the 2007 NOOD Regatta races and put together a very good video of the event. The video covers a period of no wind to some pretty decent racing in about 12 - 15 kts or so and runs a total of about 12 minutes. Good stuff.
The link below has a flash version and a 143 MB :o download version. I could not get the Flash version to play.

Thanks for the heads up CS. :D
