Since Sunday 60 crews from 8 nations have been competing in Fraglia Vela Riva, on Lake Garda in the Cadet World Championship, which began with unusually conditions for Lake Garda with little wind and a consequently slow start with only one race in two days.

Thankfully on the third day, Tuesday, the wind from the north blew steadily, allowing the rhythm of the Alto Garda known all over the world to be resumed and the Championship to resume with three races in a row.

After four races, the Argentineans Matias Federico Finsterbusch and Franco Barone are in first with 4-9-1-3, followed by the Poles Adam Rutkowski and Aleksandra Gileta with 5 points. Third and the first women's crew were the Polish team of Zuzanna Ostrowska and Alicja Labanowska.

Being surrounded by hills and mountains has the inevitable effect So far the conditions on Lake Lipno have provided for excellent and challenging sailing, however being surrounded by hills and mountains can mean that the winds are shifty and can be light at time, and this proved to be the case on day 3.
