Raising The Sails At Sogakope
The sailing teams ready to set sail!!!
E
xperienced sailors and amateurs gathered at the Ghana Sailing Club in Ada for the 2014 Sogakope Regatta on May 10.
Fair winds blew on this sunny Saturday morning and the first hobie cats reached Sogakope after just over three hours of sailing up the Volta River. Sailors and friends gathered for an evening of fun before completing the second leg of the race on Sunday. The boats had to paddle their way through the starting line for lack of wind before reaching a windy path with rough waters, making for a sporty day. It took the winner Pawel Rosiecki about 4h30 to cross the finish line at Subhi Island, where all sailors received a warm welcome from the race’s sponsor, Universal Motors CEO, Subhi Accad, who sponsored the race for the 7th year in a row. e
