TOGLIATTIAZOT HELD SAILS OF HOPE REGATTA

The “Sails of Hope” regatta organised by PJSC Togliattiazot took place in Togliatti last weekend. It is for the first time that the company held sailing competitions. They were dedicated to the 40th anniversary of the first product release.

More than 200 athletes from Togliatti, Samara, Taganrog, Syzran, Novosibirsk and other cities took part in the three-day regatta. The competitions were held in five adult (sailing cruisers and yachts) and one children categories.

The participants showed real mastery in steering Teliga-104, Dufor-40, GP-26 and other yachts.

Following the regatta, the jury decided the winners in each category, namely: Leonid Pinegin, Denis Saprunov, Viktoria Timonina, Vladimir Pavlov and Polina Tutusheva.

The regatta ended with an awarding ceremony. The sailing races were not just a sporting event, but a real holiday!

“Togliatti is a city with a rich sailing history. Back in the 1980s, there was an annual regatta for Togliattiazot awards. Our regatta is a remarkable revival of those good old traditions. It was important for us to do it in the anniversary year - the year of the plant’s 40th anniversary,”said Tatiana Efremova, Deputy CEO of CJSC Togliattiazot Corporation, HR Director.
