What MTÜ TalTech Eesti Mereakadeemia Purjetamisklubi does

MTÜ TalTech Eesti Mereakadeemia Purjetamisklubi is a non-profit student sailing club (MTÜ — mittetulundusühing) affiliated with Tallinn University of Technology (TalTech) and its Estonian Maritime Academy (Eesti Mereakadeemia), headquartered at Kopli 101, 11712 Tallinn, Estonia. The organization serves TalTech students, alumni, and employees who are interested in sailing, providing access to maritime training, sea-based events, regattas, and a community of experienced sailors. Membership is granted through an online application reviewed by the club's board, with members contacted via email at [email protected].

The club's core asset and primary product is the sailing yacht Tuulelind — a cruiser-racer type vessel with a flat bottom, measuring 44 feet (13.15 m) in length with a 4.18 m beam, 11.2-ton displacement, 18.25 m mast height, and 2.2 m draft. The yacht carries roller-furling foresail (foka), mainsail (grootpuri), gennaker, and spinnaker, with 3 cabins and 10 sleeping berths. Tuulelind was rigged and launched on 26 April 2016 and serves as the operational backbone for all sailing activities, training, and events.

The organization is governed by a five-member board — Julius Henrik Tarand (Chairman), Elizabeth Šanin (Finance Manager), Heleri Tamberg (Marketing Manager), Oskar Altrov (Administrative Manager), and Johannes Markus Altmäe (Events Manager). It sustains operations through membership fees (specific amounts not publicly disclosed) and operates within TalTech's institutional framework. Distribution is community-led: prospective members discover the club through TalTech networks, word-of-mouth, and the club's Facebook and Instagram presence (@taltech_purjetamisklubi), with no intermediaries, resellers, or external investors involved.
