ALAND - FINLAND . 19 August 2009. Day 3 , Start of Leg 3 at Headquarter EKERO (Aland) (60.14.00 N- 19.31.80 E) - 2009 Archipelago Raid ThMartinez / Sea & Co - Copyright http://www.thmartinez.com
Photographer Thierry Martinez sent these images from Day 3 of the 2009 Archipelago Raid.

The first two days were under light wind and grey sky, but the third day was a great sailing day for all competitors on their catamarans (Formula 18).

The Raid is now in Aland archipelago ( Between Sweden and Finland). With 10 to 20 knots of wind, sun and great sailing even with an early start at 5:00 am... Archipelago is one of the best places on the planet to race.
