Agio Midnight Sun Raid 2013

June 28th – July 1st 2013
Registration is now open for Agio Midnight Sun Raid 2013. It is the third year in a row this exotic raid is set up in the beautiful archipelago in northern Sweden. The shallow waters offer a unique navigational challenge often appreciated by our visitors. Races will be tough and in the evenings we will enjoy the good company and the customary sauna. 

 
Agio Midnight Sun Raid is a raid of ten races during three days which takes place in Luleå Archipelago, Bay of Bothnia. The only sweet water/brackish archipelago in the world! You will experience an exotic archipelago with over 1300 islands, long sandy beaches and midnight sun. The shallow archipelago does not only contribute to the navigational challenge, it makes the water warm and the bright balmy nights make sailing possible all around the clock. One of the special features in this event is the race sailed at midnight.
