Snipes Smile in Helsinki

Helsinki Snipe Fleet 481 closing its successful season

Some frost over the boat covers and -1 degrees Celsius did not bother us when smiling faces and satisfied minds met early morning Sunday 11th at HSK Yacht Club. A newcomer team Sundberg, fleet captain Hanna, three old and new National Secretaries and European vice secretary made a last trip to Kaivopuisto in the heart of the city. Season has been a great success for the biggest fleet in Finland: 21 Snipes at YC Helsingfors Segelklubb, 7 new teams, several TrySnipe events and Finnish Snipe Clinic for newcomers mean that Snipe Class has a bright future ahead of us.
