Unstable weather conditions September 15 allowed to hold only one race in each class.

After the first race the wind “sour” to 3-5 knots. The weather is very unpredictable. We waited for some time: such a sport for boaters this is a common situation. But soon it was decided to complete today’s competition. Monday, there will be a windy day, and we’ll catch up the planned program,” said head coach Natalia Ivanova.
