This little sailboat was tooling around Newport harbor and I snapped this as the crew was righting the boat after a capsize.

Was that a small sailboat, or just a large windsurfing board?

It is pretty small, probably just a tad larger than a Laser class. There was also a windsurfer out this day, but my pictures of him did not turn out very well.

Great shot - I used to have to do this during my early days of sailing before moving to larger, displacement boats. Looks like a great day in the harbor.
