ILCA 6 Youth European Championship 2025 at Vilamoura Sailing - Day 4

by Prow Media 17 Apr 09:34 PDT 14-16 April 2025

The fourth day of the ILCA 6 Youth European Championship marked the start of the final series, with all fleets completing two races as scheduled. Sailing conditions were favourable throughout the day, with the wind coming from the south-west.

The first race saw a light breeze of 7-9 knots, which later increased to 10-12 knots for the second race, ensuring a consistent and tactical day on the water.

As the competition intensifies heading into the final stages, athletes continue to demonstrate strong performances across the fleets.
