sailor friends, and share information about each other’s results, give advice and
discuss, where and when you could go for a sailing trip together. Groups can be either
open or closed. Closed groups mean that you have to apply for membership and be
accepted before you can participate in group activities.
All groups have a home page that displays information about group events and includes
sections for news, notice board and other information. Group members can also use
group-specific bulletin boards, chat rooms and group calendars, and add links and
create group activities. All registered suuntosports.com users are automatically

community may observe their sailed tracks on a single chart.
