Today marked an exciting prelude to the grand event happening at Dubai Offshore Sailing Club (DOSC) over the following week.

Ahead of tomorrow's highly anticipated kick-off for the SB20 World Championships, we wrapped up a successful day of boat measurements and practice races.

Our journey so far, from the SB20 Middle East Championships to the SB20 Asia Pacific Championships has primed us for an unforgettable start to the Worlds.

During the day, we engaged in insightful discussions with our race director, delving into the meticulous planning and coordination involved in organizing races of this caliber. We also had the privilege of hearing from Sailmon instruments and the measurement team, gaining valuable insights into the technology and precision behind the scenes.
