The Qualifying series concluded today at the 2025 ILCA 4 Youth European Championships & Open European Trophy in Puck, Poland, after three days of competition and all six scheduled races completed.
The day began as planned, with the first groups heading out onto the water at 11:45. The first Boys’ fleet was able to start promptly at 13:00 in light winds of around 5 knots. Meanwhile, the Girls’ course experienced unstable conditions, prompting the Race Committee to hoist the AP flag for a brief delay.
Throughout the afternoon, sunny skies, flat water, and a light breeze prevailed, with wind speeds ranging from 4 to 6 knots.
The Boys’ Yellow group was the first to return to shore at 16:15, while the Girls’ Red group was the last, arriving an hour later.
