BURTIZ - LATEEN SAIL

JEZERA 21.7.2024.

 

Lantina Jezera, a regatta of traditional boats, stood out from the first sail with its excellent organization. The good hosts have avoided victory for eleven years, trying to leave the joy to the visiting crews. Although sailing is the central event in Jezera, the main event is the first major gathering of people in the new season. This applies to the Šibenik-Knin County, where most of the traditional boats of the Adriatic are located.

The wind was just right for a good tourist sailing, which is important because there are many guests on the boats in Jezera. Any wind is enough for the favorites to have a tough competition in which every mistake is punished. The forecast is ungrateful until the last moment because the leaders change several times. Observers from the side have a hard time following the situation, and the key moment is noticed only among the favorites themselves.

Among the participants, the future of traditional regattas and maritime tradition is always a question. Ten years ago, the main question was about preserving the boats. Today, we are increasingly asking ourselves about the people who sail and who will sail. Tough questions, and Jezera is an example of the solution. They have increased their fleet several times and are now a significant support for the organization of any maritime event in the neighborhood. As for people, they have a very young team, and the top of the organization is often changed, which expands the circle of experienced people capable of supporting any manifestation of the local community. Very wise.
