The 2023 ILCA Master European Championships concluded today in Douarnenez, France, organised by Société des Régates de Douarnenez and EurILCA.
A total of 270 Master sailors hailing from 21 nations around the globe participated in this competition.
Light wind conditions allowed only one race to be held for the ILCA 7 today and no races for the ILCA 6. As a result, with 9 and 8 races completed in their respective classes, we can proudly announce now the new 2023 ILCA Master European champions!
