Location announcement published at the official notice board.

Pyhäjärvi, Säkylä.

We have just completed Grand Masters Cup here. Ice is brilliant and wind forecast also appears good.

The scouting teams are currently focusing the efforts to Säkylä and Hanko. Other locations are being followed in the background.

There have been already some sailors on ice at Hanko – reporting ice good for sailing. Sailors will be on ice at Säkylä latest Thursday – but according to the local contacts the ice appears good there as well.

The organizing committees will keep on following the weather forecasts and conditions very closely. It is rather warm week ahead of us.

Grand Masters Cup 24 Feb 27-29

Finnish Nationals 24, Mar 2-3

Find notice of race and registration for both at manage2sail
