The fourth day of the ILCA 6 Youth European Championship marked the start of the final series, with all fleets completing two races as scheduled. Sailing conditions were favourable throughout the day, with the wind coming from the south-west.

The first race saw a light breeze of 7-9 knots, which later increased to 10-12 knots for the second race, ensuring a consistent and tactical day on the water.
