No races were sailed today at the 2023 ILCA 4 Youth World Championships, hosted by the Nautical Club of Volos & Argonauts. There was no wind in the morning, so the sailors were postponed on shore.

As the day progressed, the breeze built, and the temperatures rose drastically so that it was blowing about 25-30 knots and about 46 degreesC (115 degreesF). According to the locals, today has been the hottest day in Greece this summer. Adding to the wild day of weather was a bushfire and its billowing cloud of smoke in the mountains nearby. Needless to say, racing was cancelled, and the AP over A flags were raised.
