We would like to thank our sponsor “Maistas sportui”. With its help our sportsmen were stronger!
Water tourists bought the new German and Canadian 10-seats, 15-seats and 20-seats life-rafts in 2010. It is an excellent way to organize your own team and actively spend a weekend in nature.
A new rout for the citizens of Vilnius ”Ofisas-Vilnelė-Baras” was prepared in 2009. This offer is for urbanists and city snobs, for those who want, but “can not find the time” for sailing canoes.
Dear brothers and sisters of an oar!
