Competitors from different cities of Russia took part in the competition organised by PROyachting

On the first day of the regatta there was a strong wind of 10-15 knots. The main contenders for the victory in the season, Self and Sovfracht Sailing Team, took the lead almost at once. Although by the time of the final these teams had an equal number of points, the first day increased Self team’s chances for winning considerably. As a result of five Saturday races, it was seven points ahead of the rivals.

Lazy Jibe team won silver in the final. The victories in the two final stages allowed it to overtake the closest rivals, Sovfracht Sailing Team, by 1 point and finish the series in the third place. 

The third place in the final did not allow Sovfracht Sailing Team to claim gold in the season, so eventually the team got silver medals.
