There's still winter outside but the A. Le Cog 65th Moonsund Regatta is less than 140 days away!

largest offshore regatta in Estonia. 110 yachts from Latvia, Finland, Russia and Estonia raced from Pärnu to Kärdla, Hiiumaa, stopping in Ruhnu and Kõiguste on their way. Only the ORC I and II teams raced the last leg Kärdla circle, as windlessness and strong headwinds did not let the smaller boats to arrive before sunrise the next day. The winners of the 2021 Moonsund Regatta are: Matilda 4, Sugar, Kvartet, Black Bird and W-Lind. The fastest in Cruiser division were Berta and Chantal and the best wooden Folkboot is Greta.

Today was a very brief day on the water. After a long stretch of offshore racing, there were just two ca 10-mile circles. Start was given at 11 with very light winds of 4 knots. Although the winds picked up slightly, the distances were cut to let the sailors recuperate ahead of the longest stretch from Kõiguste to Kärdla on Hiiumaa island.

The regatta is now halfway done as the Santa Maria Ruhnu - Kõiguste leg was already the fourth out of the total seven. Seems the Mediterranean weather is here to stay, and the winds do not stop playing tricks on the sails and sailors. On Wednesday morning there was enough wind for just a couple of hours and the ensuing lull stretched the 33-mile race into more than an eight-hour trial even for the bigger boats, whereas the last yachts arrived long after eleven at night. Luck and good strategy secured victory for Adelante, Amserv Toyota ST, Kvartet, Kaija and Bacchus.

The A. Le Coq 64th Moonsund regatta has held three races. By Monday late night the fleet reached Ruhnu after a 50-mile offshore race and today saw the 115 boats racing around the Ruhnu island. The start was given later than planned, just after midday. The wind conditions were tricky, although the weather being surprisingly tropical. winners are Adelante, Sugar, Celia, Black Bird and Muinasjutukuningas.

Monday morning welcomed the fleet with warm weather but very light winds, which made the plans to reach Ruhnu by nightfall dubious. However, by afternoon there was enough breeze to take the first yachts to their destination by 8 while the last teams arrived just before midnight. Matilda 4, Sugar, Pinta, Black Bird and W-Lind are the winners of their respective groups.

Already for the 64^th time A. Le Coq Moonsund Regatta has set sail. The first races were held yesterday in near perfect conditions. For sure, this was the trickiest and most intense leg of the race – Pro Marine Trade short course. All three headwind races put the teamwork capabilities of all teams to test and Premium, Sugar, Vanishing Point, Lagle III and Jonna came out as the best.

The legendary A. Le Coq 64th Moonsund Regatta will be held between July 10-17. The Moonsund Regatta is the biggest and oldest regatta in Estonia and it is quite impossible to imagine our sailing summer without it. After a long period of restrictions, it is a relief to be out and about again. We are expecting 111 teams from Estonia, Latvia, Finland and Russia, which is an improvement from the 107 yachts last year. However, the hard times have taken their toll in the number of foreign teams participating – instead of the 20 yachts that used to come from Russia, now only three are expected. Also, there will be five yachts from Latvia and just one from Finland.

Moonsund Regatta and Estonian beverage producer A. Le Coq shall join forces for a cleaner Baltic Sea to promote sustainable seafaring. A. Le Coq has been a long-term supporter of the oldest sailing event in Estonia and as the collaboration of the two was consolidated in 2014, it has been known as the A. Le Coq Moonsund Regatta ever since. The extension of the cooperation agreement is a clear indication of A. Le Coq’s firm interest in Estonian culture and sports and now the two partners have decided to contribute towards a cleaner Baltic Sea.

After a nice day off in Kärdla, the 109 yachts resumed racing and the next destination of the A. Le Coq 63^rd Moonsund regatta was Tallinn and Haven Kakumäe marina. Start was given at midday in fair winds.

The third day of the A. Le Coq 63^rd Moonsund regatta set off with 108 yachts and 700 sailors from Estonia, Latvia and Finland, with Estonian President Kersti Kaljulaid among them.

This was the only short circle of the A. Le Coq 63^rd Moonsund regatta this year. Five groups managed all three races, the results of which were combined into the final total.

The first race of the A. Le Coq 63^rd Moonsund regatta took 108 boats on the 42-mile circle on Pärnu Bay. The sea was much calmer than on the previous day and both the management team and sailors enjoyed ideal sailing weather – windy, warm and sunny.

Stormy beginning of the A. Le Coq 63rd Moonsund Regatta in Pärnu.

We are pleased to confirm the A. Le Coq 63^rd Moonsund Regatta will celebrate its official opening on Saturday the 11^th of July at Pärnu Yacht Club.

The A. Le Coq 62^nd Moonsund Regatta crossed the finish line on Saturday. This traditional sailing event is the biggest of its kind in Estonia and it hosted 131 yachts from four countries - Estonia, Finland, Latvia and Russia. The regatta started on the 13^th of July in Hiiumaa and sailed through Haapsalu, Kuivastu and Roomassaare to Pärnu where, after two final races, all winners were applauded and awarded.

The inshore races of the sixth leg of the Moonsund regatta were competitive and fast. All teams participated in upwind-downwind races requiring lots of manoeuvring and putting both the teams and their tactics to test.

The longest race took the Moonsund Regatta from Roomassaare to Pärnu. The first boats crossed the finish line at sunset, but most yachts came in during the night.

Roomassaare harbour on Saaremaa island is hosting the A. Le Coq 62. Moonsund regatta and its 750 sailors on 131 boats for two days. The fourth race, circle around Abruka, was proud to have the President of the Republic of Estonia Kersti Kaljulaid as team member.

The legs of the regatta are very different, and the third race was a day-long event. The distance to be covered was 40 – 50 miles, varying depending on the group. The first yachts reached Roomassaare nine-thirty in the evening only.

After staying overnight in Haapsalu, the start was given in Rohuküla port.

It was the first race of the Moonsund regatta – the biggest yachting event in Estonia – and it took the 131 boats to Haapsalu. It’s the 62 year of this highly expected summer event.

Almost 750 sailors on 130 yachts will set sail on Sunday. The seven days of races will take them to Kärdla, Haapsalu, Kuivastu, Roomassaare and Pärnu. The week full of races will also determine the Estonian Offshore champions in classes CDL £ 8 and Folkboot.

155 DAYS TO GO - Notice of Race has been published and registration is open at the website. 

Today (July 14h) was the last day of the A. Le Coq 61^st Moonsund Regatta, dedicated to our centenary Estonia 100, Kalev Yacht Club’s 70t^h birthday, and Estonian Yachting Union’s 90^th anniversary. The biggest and the most celebrated regatta in Estonia sailed through five harbours, from Kalev Yacht Club in Tallinn to Pärnu. The winners of the regatta in 2018 are: Sugar 2 (Pärnu Yacht Club), Adele (Yacht Club Baltsail), Bailarina (RSSC, Latvia), Katarina Jee (Saaremaa Maritime Sports Society), Tessa (Kalev Yacht Club), Mercurius (Saaremaa Maritime Sports Society) and Linda (Kalev Yacht Club).

After a long and exhausting race that finished deep into the night, some relief was most welcome. The eleven-mile Dermoshop/Confido Kihnu - Pärnu race of the A. Le Coq 61^st Moonsund Regatta was seen off at midday. The winners of the fast and short race were: Tegu (Vilnius, Lithuania), Adele (JK Baltsail), Lastochka (Orekhova harbour, Russia), Credit24 Reval Cafe (Kalev Yacht Club), Liliann (Saaremaa Maritime Sports Society), Wenna (Kalev Yacht Club) and Linda (Kalev Yacht Club).

The 70 - 90-mile Loodus Invest Kärdla - Kihnu leg of the A. Le Coq 61st Moonsund Regatta finished in the early hours of Friday. The first yacht to come in was Amserv Toyota ST of ORC II and they exceeded even the most optimistic expectations by coming in an hour before midnight, having raced for thirteen hours. After having raced for 17 hours, the last boat to reach the finish line was folkboot Tiina at 3.26 in the morning. The winners of the longest leg of the regatta were: Minni, Amserv Toyota ST, Bailarina, Katarina Jee, Sinyaya Ptica, Mercurius and Linda.

The fourth leg of the A. Le Coq 61st Moonsund Regatta comprised of the Hiiu county Kärdla circle. This 10-mile race was just what the contestants needed between two lengthy distances in order to relax a bit and recuperate. The winners of the race sailed in perfect weather were: Sugar 2, Amserv Toyota ST, Bailarina, Credit24 Reval Cafe, Tessa, Lote and Linda.

After two days of shorter circles in Tallinn, the A. Le Coq 61st Moonsund Regatta sailed to Hiiumaa. Olybet Kakumäe - Kärdla leg was one of the longest races of the regatta: 67 - 72 miles for smaller and bigger yachts respectively.

This year the Moonsund Regatta is a celebratory one. Besides being dedicated to the centenary of the Republic of Estonia, it will also mark the 90 years of the Estonian Yachting Union and 70 years of Kalev Yacht Club.

The first races of the A. Le Coq 61st Moonsund Regatta are done. The ProMarine – Kalev Yacht Club short races on the upwind/downwind course in Tallinn Bay were probably the most vigorous of all the upcoming races. The winners are: Forte, Cherie, Bailarina, Credit24 Reval Cafe, Equipe du Piloilleri 3, Lote and Lind.

In the afternoon 109 yachts went out on the sea from Kalev Yacht Club where two courses were set up, for bigger and smaller boats respectively.  

Today the races of the A. Le Coq 61^st Moonsund Regatta took the participants to Haven Kakumäe. We are very proud that for the very first time the President of the Republic of Estonia, Kersti Kaljulaid, honoured the regatta with her participation.

There’s 83 days to go until A. Le Coq 61th Moonsund Regatta

The biggest sailing magazine of Sweden - Search Magazine Segling - named Moonsund Regatta as the best offshore regatta in the Baltic Sea in 2017. The article and photo gallery about the regatta was published on December 2017 in their online magazine, written by Olle appelberg.

In one week 139 yachts from five countries with over eight hundred sailors on board raced approximately 260 miles, starting the jubilee regatta in Haapsalu and visiting the harbours of Kuivastu, Roomassaare, Kihnu and Pärnu. On Friday night the Moonsund fleet arrived in the final harbour – Riga from where the first ever Moonsund Regatta started in the opposite direction sixty years ago.

Pärnu-Riga OlyBet course - July 14, 2017

Thursday was the day for short races in Pärnu. Inshore circles have always been highly expected and beloved events of the Moonsund regatta, also this year. Although, instead of three, only two races could be held, they were exciting and eventful enough for no one to be left disappointed.

Today’s racing conditions were near perfect again. Pleasant sunshine and 10 knots of wind, what more can your heart desire? Considering how rough the Roomassaare - Kihnu leg was for the sailors, the organisers planned the course of the next race so that it would take approximately four hours and 20 - 28 nautical miles respectively, depending on the size of yachts.

On Thursday, July 13th, there will be sixth course of the A. Le Coq 60. Moonsund regatta - DANSKE BANK inshore course on Pärnu Bay.
You can follow the racing through the Live Stream of regatta's Media Partner Eesti Meedia Postimees.
Live Stream will start at 9.50 am and the first warning signal has been scheduled for 10:00 am.
There are three races scheduled and the live streaming will last until 2 pm.

Strong headwind had turned to the west and reached gusts of 14-15 m/s. On top of keeping everyone up because of the “music” it was making in the masts and ropes, it was also playing around the entrance of the marina making it quite challenging for the boats to get out to the sea. There was also more than one collision in the struggle the consequences of which need maintenance after the regatta.  

On Monday morning the fleet of 842 participants of the A. Le Coq 60^th Moonsund Regatta saluted the sun in Roomassaare. The weather was brilliant and wind playful with the waves. Everyone was excited about the short circle around Abruka Island.  

The second race of the A. Le Coq 60^th Moonsund Regatta – Mount Gay / Heimon Gourmet leg – enjoyed nice winds from Kuivastu to Roomassaare. The organisers were not very enthusiastic about the weather forecast that would have meant a very long day for smaller yachts but, fortunately, the day turned out well enough. It seems the sailors are still favoured by the winds that have not abandoned the regatta for sixty years already.

The festivities of the anniversary regatta were kicked off on the 7^th of July and the first race on Saturday took more than 140 boats on the Smarta.ee leg from Haapsalu to Kuivastu.

The opening ceremony of the highly anticipated 60^th A. Le Coq Moonsund Regatta will launch a week’s worth of races and events today in Haapsalu. Estonia’s oldest and biggest regatta is celebrating its most respectable anniversary with more than 850 sailors on 144 boats from five countries: Russia, Latvia, Lithuania, Finland and Estonia. This year the regatta is more international than ever before – as many as 34 yachts out of 144 are from abroad: one from Finland, two from Lithuania, 14 from Latvia and 17 from Russia. There have never been so many foreign guests at this event before. Within one week the “sailing festival” will visit six harbours: Haapsalu, Kuivastu, Roomassaare, Kihnu, Pärnu, and Riga.  

This is the timetable for buses taking the sailors from Haapsalu to Rohuküla and back to Haapsalu on July 7-8.

It's a traditional song festival rotating on the small islands of Estonia already for years. As on Saturday, July 8th, when the Muhu väina regatt will arrive in Muhu island, Kuivastu, the sailors have an option to join this party. Entry is free of charge.

There will be a lot to enjoy in all marinas during the regatta - enjoy!

Menu and the Opening Hours

In co-operation with Go Bus the organisers are offering the option to drive from Tallinn (with a stop in Pärnu) to Riga to be there for the celebrations in Riga on Saturday, July 15 and back to Estonia the same evening for those who are not planning to sail back home.

Moonsund regatta is the oldest and largest regatta in Estonia. This is the most expected yearly competition and the place to get together for sailors. This year the regatta will take place for the 60th time already on July 7-15, starting in Haapsalu with a final destination harbour in Riga.

Dignified age and history of the Moonsund Regatta deserve to be preserved!

The organizers of the A. Le Coq 60th Moonsund Regatta - Kalev Yacht Club, Pärnu Yacht Club and Saaremaa Marine Sport Society  have a pleasure to introduce the route and schedule of the 2017 jubilee regatta. The regatta will take place on July 7th through 15th.

The footage below (click on the photo for video) from the Tallinn Bay which was recorded for the Postimees Live Stream and dates back to July 16 during the A. Le Coq 59th Muhu Väina regatta’s final leg has been living its own life in the internet and social media for a week now. This video of the Аля Кубанеццц' mast-walk was recorded from the organizers’ media boat Storm Hunter doing the Live Stream from the final inshore races of the regatta.

During one week 111 yachts from five countries and with almost seven hundred sailors on board raced 250 miles and visited the harbors of Pärnu, Kihnu, Haapsalu, Kärdla and Kalev Yacht Club. The last races and the award ceremony took place on July 16 in Tallinn.

The fifth leg of the A.  Le Coq 59th Moonsund Regatta was Musto Kärdla – Tallinn race. Weather forecast was contradictory and many yachts decided to leave early and not participate in the fifth race. Twenty yachts bailed and only 88 yachts took part in the longest race. The promised wind did not arrive, however, and the participating sailors could enjoy both the sunset and sunrise during the long night of the race. 

The fourth racing day of the A. Le Coq 59th Moonsund regatta faced its morning in Kärdla harbour. Wednesday morning was sunny and at the captains meeting a rare downwind start was announced.

The morning of the second day of the 59th A.Le Coq Moonsund Regatta in Kihnu was warm and grey. After captain's meeting the yachts embarked on a 61-74-mile and 9-11 hour leg towards Haapsalu. There are two yachts now who have managed to get on the highest position of the podium twice – Merepärl from Pärnu YC and Kadri from Saaremaa Merispordi Selts.

The festive opening of the regatta was held on the evening of July 9 in Pärnu where the sailors were greeted by minister Indrek Saar, deputy mayor Rainer Aavik, Pärnu YC commodore Väino Hallikmägi, Egon Elstein from the Yachting Union and Margus Hiet representing Saaremaa Marine Sport Association in Pärnu Yacht Club. The speeches were followed by mellow music and a long-awaited summer party leaving also time for plotting for the long regatta ahead.

The oldest and biggest regatta in Estonia – the A. Le Coq 59th Moonsund Regatta – will set sail in Pärnu on July 10. All diehard sailors have planned their summer holidays around this event and now the big moment has arrived. The regatta will sail through Kihnu, Haapsalu  and Kärdla harbours and cross the finish line in Kalev Yacht club in Pirita Tallinn where the regatta joins Tallinn Maritime Days on July 15 and 16. Kalev Yacht Club will also host the prize giving ceremony and after-regatta festivities. In Tallinn fans can go abroad Katharina and cheer short circle races. Pärnu, Kärdla and Tallinn races will be streamed live as courtesy of our media partner Postimees/Eesti Meedia.

Very cool and trendy regatta gear is ready and awaiting the sailors at the HH pop-up stores in Pärnu and Tallinn! There will be a limited number of items – hurry up, dear sailors!

116 has been a record number of the Moonsund regatta so far, which dates back to 2014. Since there is still more than a month to go to the regatta, the organizers are hoping to see some more boats, and who knows, maybe even a record number of participants!

Two weeks to use this chance yet.

You'll find Notice of Race under the Documents

Seven days of the marathon offshore regatta found its festive conclusion in Pärnu on July 25. The 300 nautical miles regatta took 114 yachts and almost 700 sailors from Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Russia and Finland from Tallinn to the final destination Pärnu Yacht Club through Kärdla, Kuivastu and Roomassaare harbours. Award ceremony was held both to the winners of the A. Le Coq 58th Moonsund regatta and the Estonian Folkboot and ORC III champions.

A. Le Coq 58. Moonsund regatta’s last but one leg – the Pärnu circle – was very different from all the previous races. The 14-16 mile race in good weather felt like a walk in the park after all previous exhausting races.  However, the 10-11 m/s wind and waves made starting quite tricky. Most leaders held on to their positions but the final results will be clear, of course, only after tomorrow’s short track races.

The fourth leg of the regatta was not easier for the fleet than the previous races. Decent western winds of 10-11 m/s meant sailing in the wind’s eye and also many teams had to come in more or less direct contact with “rocky terrain”. The good thing is that all those who preferred it on “the rocks” managed to be on the starting line in the morning after some minor repairs. Today the fleet is headed for Pärnu.

The first two races of the regatta were really tough due to big waves, strong winds and long distances but the morning of the fourth day showed a much kinder face. Sun, relaxed atmosphere and more than 20 degrees made the Monday morning very enjoyable indeed. Just that the slight and moody winds made the third leg of the regatta a lottery for most of the sailors.

Dear spectators!
If you are following the racing of the Folkboots, you must know that the fleet of Folkboots decided not to go to Roomassaare and will sail to Kihnu island instead and from there to Pärnu tomorrow.
