The final battles before the grand finale

Another day with ULSS 9 Scaligera

The third day of racing once again featured the special participation of ULSS 9 Scaligera, the public health authority that manages healthcare and social services in the Province of Verona.

Guests from ULSS 9 had the opportunity to discover the world of the 2.4mR Class, a true symbol of inclusive sailing, through a guided tour on shore and an exciting on-water experience aboard Siora Veronica, watching the first race of the day up close.

It was another meaningful moment of connection and discovery, made even more special by the enthusiasm and curiosity of the participants.

Partners and Final Events

A special thanks goes to Intesa Sanpaolo, Main Partner of the event, which once again chose to support an inclusive sport — open and accessible to everyone.

To celebrate these days of great sport and friendship, tonight sailors, teams, and staff will gather for the Official Dinner, organized in collaboration with Cantine Tinazzi, who will offer their renowned wines for a toast marking the conclusion of the championship.

Towards the Grand Finale

Tomorrow, with the final day of racing, we will finally discover the winners of this extraordinary 2.4mR World Championship — an event that once again confirms Lake Garda and Malcesine as the ideal stage for international and inclusive sailing.

The 2.4mR Inclusive World Championship 2025 is made possible thanks to the support of Intesa Sanpaolo (main sponsor), sponsors Falconeri, Funivie Malcesine-Monte Baldo, Negri Nautica, Helly Hansen and partners MAN Truck & Bus Italia, Frantoi Redoro, Birrerie Stiegl, Cantine Tinazzi, and Speck Stube.
