Achipencos 2007 Fuerteventura

The Achipencos raft race took place on 18th February as part of the Puerto del Rosario Carnaval. Some of us expected that the event would be cancelled due to the high winds (Last year the event did not go ahead at all).However it did go ahead and a great time was had by all.

About 5,000 people attended the event. Photographs were taken by Jonathon.

The first raft to the beach was the "Troy" craft but we don't know if this constitutes winning. Anyway there were a lot of people around to join in the fun.
