Optimist Team Finland

A beautiful sight isn’t it 🤩

Day 1 on the Nordics. Light conditions but 3 starts.

Official team picture 🇫🇮

After another day waiting, we finally made it to start the team racing. The first match was against Norway, we had the control and leading the entire match until the downwind mark, where by a mistake from the team we lost the leading and the match, being straight elimination grid, the team went back disappointed for that error but understanding that from mistakes you learn.
Today is day off for the team to chill and relax, tomorrow back to the fleet race to try our best to climb in the board.

After 3 days of light winds and current, the qualifiers are over. The team had a good start but the conditions and starting mistakes placed the team with Sisu in gold, Niko Silver and Jonas, Lily and Iivari in Bronze fleet.

Tomorrow we go for a new goal, team race!!!

After a short session in the water, we went to the opening ceremony, the championship is officially on!!.
Today we race with promising forecast!

Another super hot day!!!!

Really heavy conditions, hot weather and lights winds, but the team is giving everything to polish details.

Measurement day and short day in the water.
Short session in the water with light winds and high temperatures, after that the team measured the boats and everything ok!

First training day for the team.

After preparing the boats we went to the water for a nice session with 10 knots and choppy waves, perfect sailing conditions!!!
