Sepp Takes Nordic Title

Estonia’s Mati Sepp claimed victory at the Nordic Championship which was held from 3-5 October 2014 in Tallinn, Estonia.

Twelves teams from seven countries participated on the regatta – 4 Estonians, 2 Swedish, 2 Finnish, 1 Polish and as well more exotic entries from Hungary, Greece and as far as Australia.

Organisers were facing very challenging weather conditions as on the first day only 5 flights were sailed and none on the second day because of lack of wind. Everything was decided on Sunday and because of the time limit of 15:00 there was no time to complete the round robin so winning percentage determined the Nordic Champion of 2014 as local team leaded by skipper Mati Sepp. That was the second grade 2 victory in a row for Mati Sepp’s team. Second was team Accure from Sweden helmed by Patrik Sturesson and third was World Match Race Tour card holder David Gilmour and his team.
