It is a sailing race organised in Turkey for the first time on August 5-6, 2023, in which the number of the women and men is equal in all teams. This is a racing concept in which not only the teams but umpires who supervise the race, field staff and photographers are consisted of an equal number of men and women as well. Thus, a distribution of roles which is entirely determined by experience and skills, independent of gender from soup to nuts in the whole organisation.
