Aleksandr Aliyev, Executive Director of ANO Baltic regatta Ust-Luga Cup, told about the plans for the regatta of 2018: “More and more people get involved in this movement, we expect new participants, we are looking forward to the regatta of 2018, thinking about new routes, new participants. Many of those who took part in previous seasons promised to participate in the regatta of 2018. I do not rule out that four groups will have to be made as there will be many yachts at the start line”.
