ILCA 4 World Championship 2024 at Viana do Castelo, Portugal - Day 1

by Prow Media / ILCA 25 Jun 19:08 BST 23-30 June 2024

Unfortunately, Day 1 was a no-go for the sailors. Despite a consistent breeze in Viana do Castelo over the past three weeks, the first day of racing was disrupted by fog, preventing any races from being sailed.

The weather forecast for the upcoming days looks excellent, promising great conditions for the continuation of the championship.

Stay tuned for more updates!
