While pleased with the active participation of young athletes – 17 juniors. In the Russian championship “Finn”-masters were made by 22 veterans of the sport. Despite the fact that the number of participants in the regatta this year was inferior to the previous one, she gathered the core riders, systematically sailing in a class “Finn”. The vast majority of adult athletes performed solely on a private yacht.
Nature gave the participants a nice warm Sunny weather and moderate wind with challenging hits and bands of amplification-attenuation. So the riders were able to test their tactical skills, and each race until the last meters kept me wondering.

The fact that in later days came to an anticyclone, which is not allowed to make a single start.
Race overall, it was a tactically complex – was pronounced the best side. The situation is constantly changing, strong winds, and visits, were spots, stripes, fought a few threads. And riders were required not only to skillfully navigate in such conditions, but also considerable luck.
From the beginning the lead in the regatta captured the leader of the national team of Russia in a class “Finn” Muscovite Arkady Kistanov. Near it is the winner of the last regatta Yuri Bozhedomov from Sevastopol. Both athletes showed very good technique, tactics and the end of the regatta gave no chance to other competitors to come closer to them.
For third place, a struggle between Evgeny Deivam (Moscow) and Dmitry Petrov (Togliatti). The finish of the seventh race, the athletes equal on points and only a greater number of the best parishes allowed Evgeny Deyev to take third place.
