pics b1-5 are same thing, different day. For 5 bonus

points

Damn Koe, did you cheat? According to iWind it was a=8-12
b=9-14


They must like to puff things up 1 kt for some reason..

and I have no idea what the heel was. 15 points to
Joe. Spend them wisely.


No need to cheat dotty, I can read the water like a book, the
pictures look pretty clear.
