Kärol Soodla, a student in the programme of studies in applied chemistry, food and genetic engineering of TalTech and European champion in the GT-30 boat class of powerboat racing, was elected as the Tartu female athlete of the year.
Kärol has already for six years been doing sports in the middle of the water and engines. She at the same time admits that actually not much is known about powerboating sports. It is according to her, a whole lot more than just speeding along a river in a boat.
The training and home are located in Tartu, she decided in the autumn of 2020 to start studies at the TalTech Faculty of Science, where she is studying in the field of applied chemistry, food and genetic engineering. She thus lives from Monday to Thursday in Tallinn and on weekends in Tartu.
Powerboating is a field of sports, in which competitions in the speed of motorboats take place. The competition vessels are divided into competition classes by boat type and engine capacity. Read more about powerboat racing from the website of the Estonian Powerboating Union.
