Eero L. (FIN-45) and myself (FIN-41) had the pleasure to represent Finland. We travelled to Croatia by car, the nonstop journey from Vasa to Dubrovnik took 3 days.
We had pleasant mediterranean weather, 20-25 degrees and mild winds, the kind of weather we have in Finland during summer months. The tide, on the other hand, was a new fenomena for us northerners.
Croatians really worked hard for the event and as You can see from the results, they are very good sailors too. On the way home we made detours to Hungary, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Germany and Sweden.
Here are some of the pictures taken during the Finnish IOM championship in Vaasa. The competition was a success, both days saw beautiful weather and windy conditions.

Some pictures from the Phocéa Cup 2006 in Marseilles, France. The event took place in March and was attended by IOM enthusiasts from all over the world. We didn't place as high as expected but all in all it was a fun event and You had a chance to visit many interesting places and meet lots of interesting people.
