JPMorgan Round the Island Race 2007 Photo Competition

by Lucy Harwood & Gael Pawson 15 Jun 2007 22:01 BST

We're on the hunt for the best photographs from this year's JPMorgan Asset Management Round the Island Race, and judging winners is none other than Sir Robin Knox Johnson.

Old Pulteney and Henri Lloyd have joined forces in a photography competition, encouraging everyone to capture the excitement and beauty of one of the world's largest yacht races. Whether it's onboard shots, or a view from a spectator boat, yours could be the shot which is judged to convey the atmosphere of the race.

First, second and third prize in the Over 18's competition will be bottles of Old Pulteney Whiskey (21 year, 17 year and 12 year old line extensions), while winners of the Under 18 competition will win Henri Lloyd dry bags.

To enter, email your pictures to mark@yachtsandyachting.com with the subject 'RTI Photo Competition'. Please include your name, address and daytime phone number. Any submissions must be photographs taken by the competition entrant during the 2007 JPMorgan Asset Management Round the Island Race, and entries will be published online and may be published in Yachts and Yachting Magazine. The deadline for entries is Friday 29th June.
