Valars
The second Russian team on the Circuit learned the ropes with the original Farr designed former Caixa Galicia. They chartered the former Mutua Madrilena for most of the 2008 season, an accomplished light winds performer but when the opportunity arose to buy the latest Mean Machine TP52 they seized it and sailed the new Valars for the first time in Portimao.
They had a 2009 season with mixed results, showing good speed at times, but lacking consistency.
Unfortunately Valars has to slim down their sailing activities for 2010, but they stay in touch with the TP52 Class as their boat will be sailed in the 2010 MedCup and Worlds by the All4One syndicate.
Valars aims to run their own TP52 campaign again in 2011.
