The sports' governing body becomes an official partner of the photo contest dedicated to competitive sailing. The top twenty images will be exhibited at World Sailing's annual conference in Abu Dhabi. The winners will be announced and celebrated at the Yacht Racing Forum on November 21 in Malta.

The Mirabaud Yacht Racing Image award is pleased to announce a three years partnership with World Sailing.
