Nice weather and breeze conditions allowed three new races to be held in Travemünde today, where the 2021 EurILCA 4.7 Youth European Championships & Open European Trophy wrapped now the Qualifying series and will face the Finals tomorrow on the last two days of competition.
South to South West 11-12 knots wind from shore provided sailors of great fun and speed over nearly flat water. 18-20 knots gusts even forced them to hike hard from time to time to keep their boats fast.
