The 2024 ILCA Senior European Championships & Open European Trophy are taking place in Athens, Greece. from 18th until the 23rd February.

Arthur said “I’m looking forward to just racing against the best and maybe putting them under some pressure. Should be a super competitive regatta with some light wind tricky racing expected”

Some of the competitors will be fighting for the last few Olympic qualification spots for some countries, making for some super tight racing. Following this Arthur will be making his way to Pollença, Palma de Mallorca for the Under 21 Europeans and then a long intensive training session for the whole of March.

The racing runs from 18th till the 23rd February.
