Virtual start

Online entry is now open for Kiel Week

The first gun has already been fired for Kiel Week 2008 (21-29 June) - in the virtual world: The online entry system for competitors is now open for international and olympic classes via the Kiel Week website ( www.kieler-woche.de ). The entry procedure including submission of crewlists and effecting payments is very easy to use and shortens the journey to Kiel in a convenient and pleasant way.

Once in Kiel, latest news and press releases can be sent by email to up to three domestic press contacts per competitor. This new service from the Kiel Week regatta team ensures that nobody at home will miss a thing in their local newspaper about their crew’s successes in Kiel.
