Dear Sailors,

it is just ten days before the start of X jubilee edition of the Split Olympic Sailing Week.

On behalf of Yacht Club Labud I can express our great pleasure to be your host!

As you allready noticed, for the first time we are going to organize SOSW a bit later, in April. There have been several reasons for this decission. One of the main reasons (as many of you know), in Split in March can still be quite cold and (too) windy. Sailing conditions in April are supposed to be much better, and the climate in general is much more pleasant while the day is much longer. But we also like to give altenative solution for sailors for who World Sailng Cup in Palma is too expensive and to far a way. SOSW can also be a fantastic solution for a final “tune-up” for Hyeres Week.

This year is 10th jubilee edition of SOSW, as well our club is celebrating 90 years so this is additional motiv to give our best and increase reached standards. Thanks to our old and new sponsors and partners as:

Town of Split, Country of Split, Tourist board of Split and contry of Split, PBZ Leasing, Honda Marine, Croatia Lloyd, First Sailing, Sailing Point, Marine Pool, Caffe bar Paradiso, Nautika centar Nava, Luk Oil, Virga etc…

I can add In addition that SOSW Regatta is recognized as a true sports brand of the County of Split, so apart of extremly strong Croatian Olympic Sailing Team, this is one more guarantee that you can expect top level sailing event.

Looking forward to see you soon in Split,

Karlo Kuret
SOSW project coordinator
