To celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Battle of Normandy, the new owners of M/S Alpo's want to organize a big convoy of ships. The convoy lands to Normandy 80 years after the Normandy landings. We wish that hundreds or even thousands of ships and boats will participate in the Convoy along the way.
We organize events in each harbour we stop by, together with local yacht clubs. We will gather people and ships together for the trip to Normandy. We wish to reach hundreds of thousands of people in the events, the main event, and through the media. This huge project is organized by three Finnish business men Markku Kankaala, Martti Haapala and Jukka Juola.
