PPJ Seminar - 2010 Passage Diary Aboard Freezing Rain

Jay Ailworth ("Strange Bird"), acclaimed marine photographer, and experienced cruiser and delivery captain, crewed for friends aboard Freezing Rain, a Hallberg-Rassy 46, in the 2010 Puddle Jump.  He will share the ups and downs of the passage to the South Pacific in his colorful style.  As a special extra treat, he will also share his very best of more than 3,000 photos taken during the trip.

Jay has called Nuevo Vallarta home since 2006 and has been travelling in Mexico since 2004.  His love of sailing is the main reason he chose Banderas Bay and its perfect sailing conditions as the place he wanted to live.  Jay first became involved in photographing major sailing regattas on the bay during the 2006 Festival Nautico and MEXORC regatta.  Since that time he has photographed every major regatta held on Banderas Bay including the 2007 International J24 World Championship, the 2007 Optimist North American Championship and recently the Regata Copa Mexico.  His photographs have been featured in and appeared on the covers of several international magazines including Mexico's "Sports Elite Magazine", "Amura Yachts and Lifestyle", "Vallarta Nautica", "Sail Magazine", "Planeta Surf" and "Vallarta Lifestyles".  He continues to travel and photograph the places he visits wherever they may be.
