Volvo 70 – Green Dragon
 
The Sailing Club of Rijeka and Porto Montenegro Yacht Club invite sailors to the fifth Thousand Islands Race from 14 – 24 September 2017. This race is run among more than 1000 Adriatic islands. The course is heralded as the best offshore course that nature may design.

There are two legs and yachts can choose to race leg 1 only, leg 2 only or both legs.

The first leg starts on Sunday, September 17th in front of the historic Rijeka harbour in Croatia. The course is set to leave the islands of Unije, Susak, Premuda, Dugi Otok, Kornat, Vis, Lastovo and Sv. Andrija to starboard and finish in front of Porto Montenegro marina in Tivat, Montenegro. The distance is approximately 280 miles, and presents the challenge of navigating among the many islands and channels of the Croatian coast and fascinating Boka Kotorska bay. The reward is the pleasure of sport and the region’s stunning natural beauty known around the world for its character.

After the prize giving party on Wednesday, September 20th, the fleet races back to Rijeka on the same course, starting on Thursday, September 21st and followed by the prize giving scheduled for Saturday, September 24th in Rijeka.
A short promotional tune-up race is planned in Rijeka on Saturday 16th September and “1000 islands + 2 race” in Boka bay on Wednesday September 20th. This event which is an outstanding sailing experience, also offers great social events in Rijeka and Porto Montenegro marina. A good time for seeing fellow sailors and meeting new friends.
