Photographer Thierry Martinez sent these images from Day 3 of the 2009 Archipelago Raid.

The first two days were under light wind and grey sky, but the third day was a great sailing day for all competitors on their catamarans (Formula 18).

The Raid is now in Aland archipelago ( Between Sweden and Finland). With 10 to 20 knots of wind, sun and great sailing even with an early start at 5:00 am... Archipelago is one of the best places on the planet to race.
