With a nice ceremony, at the premises of the Hellenic Nautical Club, the “58th Eurobank International Sailing Struggle” Andros “was completed. The historic group opened, for the second time in the 21st century, its beautiful gardens and, overlooking the sea, organizers and competitors had the opportunity to exchange views and design the next event, which, as they promised, would be even better. The sailors, once again, referred to the hospitality of the residents of Andros but also to the beautiful moments they passed by sailing on, full of racing challenges.
“I want to promise you that if this year’s event was good, next year and in the coming years you will see what it means better. The race has become 58 years old but, in recent years, we have the opportunity with an excellent partner who also innovates in his daily life, Eurobank, to dare something new. To dare to open a race in two and join two ends of the Aegean, two islands with great naval history: Chios with Andros. We joined them with the center of sailing, which is the Faliros bay, thereby giving a new impetus to the struggle, “said the Naval Group of Nautical Club Stratis Andreas.
The hospitality of the residents of Andros is one of the components of the success of the event. All the competitors renewed their appointment for the following year. “I would like to thank all the participants in the” 58th Eurobank International Sailing Race “I. V. Goulandris”. We promise you that every year the race will be better. We are waiting for you next year with other more original ideas, ”said the president of the Andros Faidon Nautical Club.
