RS Aero Youth World Championship at Marstrand, Sweden - Day 1

by RS Aero International Class Association 13 Aug 04:34 UTC 12-16 August 2024

60 young RS Aero sailors from 7 countries have gathered at the island fortress of Marstrand, Sweden, to compete in the 3rd RS Aero Youth World Championships, supported by Rooster.

The large growing RS Aero Youth fleets from Sweden and Estonia have fielded big teams and are joined by Netherlands, Italy, Denmark, Great Britain and the USA.

Beautiful blue skies and warm sun in Marstrand Sweden! Light breeze of 2-5m/s (4-9kn) for day 1 after the gales over the weekend had passed.

Race 1 was completed with shortened courses. Race 2 saw a late wind shift which left the course quite scewed. Race 3 the wind increased with full hiking at times.

Great to get all 3 races in on such a gloriously hot and sunny day in Sweden!

After Day 1 Estonia lead the RS Aero 5s with the top 3, Italy lead the RS Aero 6s with the top 2 ahead of Estonia in 3rd and Sweden lead the RS Aero 7s with a 1st and 3rd, split by Great Britain in 2nd.

Racing is over five days, concluding on Friday 16th. Results so far can be found at www.sailarena.com/sv/se/club/mass/youth-aero-worlds
