Looks like it was an early start?
Indeed it was! Left home at 6:50 to get there for 7:30 and another 3/4 hour waiting for the confluence of trucks and forklifts 
(And that after about an hour yesterday afternoon!)
I was near the end of the last battery when things just turned out right. So that stuff about early birds was right, this time 
Ditto!!!
Point awarded…just 
We, as a group, have studied your entry Sarah. We are struggling to easily identify 6 orange boats. Could you please resubmit the original entry after circling/highlighting the boats you think are orange so we can have another look.
From previous experience we know that emotions can run high in competitions where cash prizes (or the equivalent) are on offer for the winners. The awarding of points comes under close scrutiny from your competitors.
We appreciate that it takes an expenditure of time and money to plan, prepare for and perform a flight to capture a subject and/or its bonuses.
Please do not waste your efforts by submitting pictures where the subject or bonus item is so difficult to see that the judges’ immediate reaction is to reject them.
If you cannot see the items in the picture clearly when displayed on a phone or a laptop screen, the picture will almost certainly not get maximum points. It may get none.
It is not our job to minutely scan a greatly enlarged version of your picture in an attempt to find points for you; it is your job to present a picture that clearly shows subject and bonus items so we can award the points.
We have been lenient and expended a great deal of time behind the scenes to ease both new contestants and old hands back into a mode of competition where artistic merit is not a factor but pictures containing clear, obvious subjects and, where asked for, clear and obvious bonus items, are the only requirement.
Sarah is going to re submit. Hope this also helps with the location of some of the boats. We will make sure now that we take extra pictures to help the committee but this is to show where the boats were on mine. Whilst 4 of the boats remained where they were for the duration of our visit, the two motorboatds did go around the lake making sure the sailing boats were safe. Not giving excuses but Sarah did stop on top car park due to her mobility and not getting down to where I was so she had very little shade on her screen where I was shaded by trees.
Hope this assists to show there were 6 orange boats.
RE Submission…

Claiming 1 point, you can also see these boats in @Foley 's submission, althought the two speed boats are further out in mine.
Hope the re submission saves us a drive out.
