ILCA Masters European Championship 2024 at Vilamoura Sailing, Portugal - Overall

by Prow Media 11 Oct 2024 20:52 BST 7-11 October 2024

The ILCA Masters European Championship 2024 concluded today with a spectacular prize-giving ceremony at MoTAO, marking the end of a thrilling week of racing in Vilamoura Sailing.

The final day began with an early start, anticipating stormy weather. However, the forecast surprised us, turning into a warm, sunny morning with no wind, causing a delay in the races. Finally, the wind picked up in the afternoon, and racing could proceed. The ILCA 6 fleet had their first start at 14:20, followed by the ILCA 7 fleet.
