Helsinki - Tallin race 2016

As explained this year crew was a little bit different. Me (Petri, was still the skipper), Janne was a steerman and the rest of the cre were Erkki, Antti, Ipu, Per and Antti.

We started at 19.23.30 towards Tallinn. The weather conditions were very variable from practically no wind up to 10 m/s.. The start was excellent, being first of four Yachts starting the same time.

We finished the race at 6.02.01 being 19 of 36 yachts in our class. Not bad, because we really screwed the end of the route by small misunderstanding of the goal area (at least four positions).

AquilaDeux behaved well and moved fast when there was wind. The crew was well motivated and fresh all over the route. She is a lovely lady.

Saturday evening we had our own party in Telliskivi.

Sunday Morning the skipper had to leave with bro Erkki and Pekka- Me and my bro to participate my daughters sons babtism (Eemi Ansel was his name, blessings to him, hope he will be a great sailor!)

Under a command of Ipu, Antti, Janne and Per sailed Aq2 back to the homedocks in the Särkkä.

Thank you my friends again or the great opportinity of sailing and fellowship. Without you not possible.
