Hangö Classics 2020
Hangö Classics is a regatta, organized by Hangö Segelförening HSF, that is in 2020 replacing the Hangö Regatta which would have been too big with regards to the Corona restrictions.

Viaporin Tuoppi 2017, SuPS
Viaporin Tuoppi is the biggest event for wooden boats in Europe. This year it was organized for the 33rd time. The sailing weather was light and partly cloudy. After most of the boats had arrived to the after sail party at the Suomenlinna island the worst thunderstorm of the whole summer struck the event, anyhow without causing any bigger damages. 80 photos and a short 2 minute video.
Results, which are not the most important thing in this event, can be found HERE.
Hanko Regatta 2016
The one and greatest Hanko Regatta was sailed on the second weekend of July in varying winds and some fog on Saturday morning. Almost 200 yachts in 17 different classes on 4 separate race areas during three days makes it a popular regatta for a hardcore sailor and for less serious holiday sailors as well. Sorry for not having any photos of the Moth class. I was just not on the right place on the right time.
25 photos from Saturday, race area C (5m, 606, Hai, Albin Express, Finn, Folkboat)

Helsinki Regatta 2016
Helsinki Regatta photos of keelboat classes from Saturday races in nice sunny weather and light to medium wind. If you wonder why there are not so many photos of the 6mR yachts, it is because I was asked to shoot some video of the 6mR class. Download keelboat results.
