by Prow Media / Edited by ILCA 6 Jul 2024 06:34 BST 1-8 July 2024

The 2024 ILCA Under 21 World Championship in Viana do Castelo has completed its third day of successful racing. Another day of near-perfect sailing conditions afforded the sailors opportunities to gain in the standings.

The day began on time at 11:45, with the D Flags up for the yellow ILCA 7 and ILCA 6 fleets. Excellent but challenging racing conditions were experienced where the wind was nearly identical to Thursday at 330º, starting at 10 knots and building up to 18 knots by the second race. The fleets completed scheduled two races, marking the end of the qualifier series, setting the stage for the finals.
