On 6^th September, the legendary Nord Stream Race will start once again in Kiel, taking the five national teams via Copenhagen, Stockholm and Helsinki to Russia, where they are expected to arrive on 17^th September. The sailing teams each represent the best national sailing clubs from Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Russia and compete for the title “Best Yacht Club in the Baltic Sea”.

The sailors of the five clubs will race to Russia in 15-metre ClubSwan 50 racing yachts, facing enormous nautical and challenging weather conditions in the Baltic Sea.

For the first time, more than 100,000 e-sailors are expected to compete at the same time in the “NSR eTrophy” being the highlight of this year’s NSR eSeries. The e-sailors will navigate virtually the same challenging route as the sailors in the Baltic.
