ARGONAUTICAL PARK
The First ARYA Training Center
Afissos / Pelion
Discover the Beauty of Afissos
Built in an amphitheatre style, Afissos is a coastal village and is one of the prettiest
in the whole Pelion region. It is picturesque and alive with activity and colour along
its harbour seafront with many tavernas and bars. In the shady village square water springs from the same fountain which, according to the legend, the Argonauts
stocked up with water before their epic adventure to find the Golden Fleece.
Afissos is surrounded by three wonderful beaches of Kalifteri, Lagoudi and beautiful Abovos.
Surrounded by the beauty of the Pagasitikos Gulf and Mount Pelion (said to be the
summer residence of the Gods of Olympus) Afissos is an ideal base for trips to
the Mount Pelion Villages … you can see why people don’t just come here for the
sailing.
IFDS International ‘Challenger’
Multihull Championship 2007
The Argonautical Park in cooperation with the Maistrali Sailing Club organised with great success the IFDS IMC 2007
multi hull championship. More than 250 volunteers from all over the world took part in the largest Sailability event in
Greece, second only to the Paralympics of Athens 2004.
14.6.2007 Letter of Ian Harrison – VP of IFDS to the president of the organizing committee of IFDS IMC 2007 Mr.
Sotirios Giamakos.
Dear Sotirios
I cannot express in words my appreciation for the wonderful job you did in preparation and during the regatta. I feel
it was little short of miraculous. I am aware of the many difficulties you had to overcome to create the building and
to get it completed in time for the event. I am very proud to have been the first official user of the lift. You appear to
have thought of everything and I would find it difficult to think of better designed building for a disabled sailing event
any where in the world.
I am not sure exactly who did what but everything worked extremely well whether it was the ceremonies, the volunteers and in the end the race officials.
However the thing we will always remember, without exception, was the commitment, the enthusiasm and the kindness that we were shown by everyone. I have never been to a regatta where there was such a pleasant atmosphere
and I did not hear any criticisms or complaints from anyone. That must be a record.
Please convey our deepest gratitude to all those who helped to provide an event that will be remembered by all those
who were involved for the rest of their lives.
I do wish you all every success at the Argonautical Park and Maistrali sailing club.
My very best wishes to you all
Ian Harrison – VP of IFDS
The race is fully presented on the Argonautical Park’s site: www.maistrali.net
