Limited edition book "Torbole Triumph" Robert Deaves
A beautiful Limited Edition book has been produced celebrating the record breaking 2016 Finn World Masters in Torbole.

In May 2016 a record 355 Finns from 32 countries turned up for the Finn World Masters in Torbole, at the northern end of Lake Garda in Italy. It was the largest Finn event of all time (so far).

The action on the water was captured in a beautiful selection of images taken all week by Berit Hainoja, and on Wednesday and Friday by Michael Kurtz. A sequence of amazing aerial photos was also taken by Robert Deaves using a mast head action cam while racing.

More than 350 of the best images have now been combined into a stunning new book, Torbole Triumph, celebrating the event along with the story of how the week unfolded. The images and words on these pages capture a unique event for the Finn class. The book also includes an index of results and bow numbers.

The book is being released as a Limited Edition run, so to ensure you get hold of a copy please Order Now.

Printed on 130 gm perfect bound gloss art paper and wrapped in a beautiful printed hardback cover, this is a collector’s item for Finn aficionados everywhere, bringing to life again the lasting memories of an epic Finn event.
