Crew’s impressions about participating in this regatta.
Kadetov Vlas: «Last time I took part in regatta here in 1976 – «Volga’s regatta» and «Central sport society “Labour”». I like area of water and coast infrastructure in Toliatti. There are smiling and kind people there. I remembered the last three races; it was beat; it was stable and strong wind (7-11 m/sec). It was possible to value crew’s work and boat speed, characteristics and performances».
Plugotarenko Alexey: «We could know better the boat. Our helmsman restored his qualification from race to race, and you can see the results. My brightest impressions is full course, when gust of wind reaches 10-11 m/sec, planning with gennaker on the runner with background of picturesque Dzhigulev mountains, and leeward mark was in mouth of Ussa river. Not reaching 500 m the leeward mark, we beared off the wave, I was not in time to ease gennaker, and we were in broaching. Unforgettable!».
Ludyakov Alexander: «There were 8 yachts on the start, not 5 as in Minsk, and I liked it. So there were races in other fleet, and it intensified the fight. By the way there is a difficult water area, everybody should be on the guard constantly. Unfortunately, we had a car breakage, and we could not take part in the first race. The wind was unstable in direction and in power in second and third races, so you could win 2-3 miles and you could loose them at once. There was a difficult in and out from harbor to water area because of decreasing water level until 0,5 m, and you could sit on shoal, and it happened with us many times».
