Dear captains and shipowners of sailing yachts!
In recent years, the number of yachts participating in sailing regattas on the Lower Volga has decreased significantly.
The main reason is that the old captains have already aged, and many have simply passed away. And the new captains have not been formed in their former capacity.
There were times when the addition to the ranks of captains was due to the love of sailing in children's sports sections with gifted coaches. The fleet was acquired with the money of the trade unions of state-owned enterprises.
Of course, we can't bring back the old era, but we also don't want to accept that our Lower Volga will be left without sails.
Nevertheless, the replenishment of the fleet and the composition of the captains themselves is increasing every year. Not at the previous pace, but still…
Thanks to the sailing charter abroad and the active advertising of European charter companies, new yachtsmen who are experienced in sails and the sea are appearing on our media resources.
The new captains are no longer the same guys who signed up for the sailing section in childhood, but slightly different guys. They are self-sufficient and actively interested in sailing and tourism. Those who are able to buy a sailing yacht on their own.
But often yachtsmen from the Soviet era and yachtsmen from the modern era are tied TO the FOLLOWING ANCHORS.
THERE'S A YACHT, THERE'S A CREW, BUT IT'S TOO FAR FOR YOU.
We will arrange for you to unload and load the yacht, and to park your keel for the duration of the regatta.
Come to us by car with a trailer. This is how many people practice, even transporting 34-foot boats (Anton Timakov yacht "Columbus" regatta, Sevastopol; Oleg Tikhonov yacht "Amiga" 34 ft Saratov)
THERE IS A YACHT, THERE IS TIME, BUT THERE ARE NO OR NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE IN THE TEAM
We have sports, of course, but still not a big professional one, but rather an amateur one. Therefore, for a sailing yacht, as a rule, a team of 4 people is enough. Provided that two of them are in the subject of sailing.
We receive a small stream of people who do not own a yacht, with questions about participating in the regatta. Among them are both experienced and novice yachtsmen.
You pre-submit an application for participation. We're pre-selecting a team for you. To do this, we conduct a remote interview with the candidate, then recommend him to the captains (we have many years of experience in this).

where the participants were partially matched to the same team. Everyone is happy, and everyone was happy.
While the yacht was going to Tolyatti for the regatta and back, a lot of people changed on board, which is why this film appeared.
I HAVE A YACHT, I HAVE A CREW, I HAVE TIME, BUT IT'S TOO EXPENSIVE FOR ME TO PAY ALL THE EXPENSES FOR TRAVELING TO YOU.
Your new sailors, of course, did not participate in the spring preparation of the yacht for the season and will not participate in the preservation of the boat for the winter. They also did not buy or build your yacht. These are not your relatives or friends at the first stage. Of course, participation in your team on board will be paid. The captain will receive 10,000 rubles or more from each new member of the team (+ separate money for groceries for the newcomer + money for entry fees for the newcomer).
Finances only after registration of the yacht for participation in the regatta.
This amount will partially cover your financial difficulties for participating in the regatta.
If you have a sailing yacht of the Bavaria 46 type, with a hot shower, refrigerator, Webasto heating, with separate cabins for clients, and you have experience working with VIP personnel, captain-cook–instructor, if the interior of the boat is in proper condition, then, of course, we are talking about other money.
Previously, every captain who wants to take on board a commercial sailor needs to be interviewed by the regatta commander.
