Aegean Race

 

Dear paddlers and Friends,


After the stunning success of the first Aegean Paddler Race in 2012, our club presents to you the second Race which will be held on the 12th-13th of October 2013 and will be part of a European Paddler Series. Our race has been established as and annual International Race of Top Level, our main asset apart from our great weather and downwind runs, is that we are a day's drive away from Central Europe.

The event is jointly organized by:

Vari Varkiza Yacht Club, our Club President mr. John Markoulakos
and  our Race Director and Club Secretary Jonathan Constantine
e hope to have the great pleasure to welcome you with your Family and friends !
Best regards,

The Organizing Committee
