This year we take part in Helsinki-Tallin race with two yachts: S/Y AquilaDeux (Swan 371 LYS 1,20) and S/Y Sunday (Finngulf 33 LYS 1,24).
Both yachts are participating on the class "Business"-LYS. this year we sail under the colors DAY-medical (www.day-medical.com) and worpix(www.worpix.com).
DAY-medical is a Swiss company who develops and manufactures innovative solution for the laboratory diagnostics. Their first product is the line of DAYmate automates for the blood banks.
Worpix is a new channel to deliver photograph directly from the photographer to the end-user.
AquilaDeux crew this year is: Petri (Skipper), Jaska (Helmsman), Stidi (strategist), Pekka (Piano-man) and Anssi A (deck-crew). Sunday-crew is Erkki (Skipper), Ipu (crew), Per (crew) and Ilpo (crew)
At the moment according the long-term forecast we can expect SW wind around 5 m/s.
In Tallinn we will give a new prize for the "best Matikainen-yacht". Prize is offcially named as "P.T.Matikainen Challenge trophy".
may the best man win!
