Moorings expansion

The Moorings announced the expansion of its worldwide cruising destinations to include Scandinavia with the addition of Midnight Sun Sailing as a Moorings Preferred Partner. This will add five new locations in Sweden and Finland for Moorings sailors. The new locations offered by The Moorings in Finland will be located in Helsinki, Airisto and Taalintehdas. There will also be a base near Stockholm, Sweden and one in the Aland Islands.

Midnight Sun Sailing based in Taalintehdas, Finland has become the second Moorings Preferred Partner. "Midnight Sun Sailing is the undisputed charter
industry leader in Finland and Sweden with five bases and over 60 yachts. They have built this reputation over 15 years of excellent service to their
customers," commented Raul Bermudez, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for The Moorings.

"We are very proud to offer the beautiful cruising grounds of this area to our customers through such a quality company".

"We are equally excited to become a member of The Moorings family through The Moorings Preferred Partners program"

commented Juha Hurme of Midnight Sun Sailing.
"It was a natural fit with The Moorings given their reputation as the premier yacht charter company in the world. We are excited to offer the waters of the midnight sun to Moorings customers worldwide as well as provide access for our local sailors to the 37 destinations offered by The Moorings."

The Sea of Archipelago Boating Paradise
There are over 50,000 islands that are awaiting exploration throughout this cruising area, whether you begin your trip from one of four locations in Finland and the Aland Islands or from Sweden. In Turku, Aland and the Stockholm archipelagos alone you will find hundreds of harbours and islands to explore. The Moorings will offer 60 yachts ranging in size from 31-ft to 51-ft monohulls and 38-ft catamarans. One-way charters are also available between the locations in Finland and Sweden. Twisted rope should be put into round coils. Right-laid rope, as most twisted rope is, should be wound clockwise, while left-laid rope should be wound counter clockwise. Preserving the lay of the rope in this way will make for line that coils easily and plays out smoothly.
