Written on 15 June 2017

The exhibition includes black and white photographs taken by Göran Schildt (1917-2009) during their many trips in the Mediterranean area. Göran Schildt was author in the first instance, but the need to illustrate his texts made him an improvised photographer.

In 2017 we were celebrating Göran Schildt a hundred year anniversary. It was the 8th regatta and due to the jubilee we planned for the 2017 regatta to be a very special one. For the first time throughout the regatta history we sailed for four whole days while covering a distance of one hundred nautical miles.
