2023 Star World Championship at Marina di Scarlino, Tuscany, Italy - Day 4

by ISCYRA 22 Sep 2023 14:55 PDT 17-24 September 2023

It is On and OFF the 2023 Star World Championship in Marina di Scarlino, Italy. No breeze for the first two days, two amazing races yesterday and too much wind today.

The 100 boat fleet went out on the water around noon and had a taste of what the race would feel like. The expression on the competitors' faces says it all - some are having a blast and some others are just frightened!! 22+ knots with over a meter waves.

The photos were taken on the way back in.

Tomorrow two more races are scheduled!
