Entry for the 2026 Finn Open European Championship in Gdynia, Poland, from 20-27 June, has opened on 7 January.

Early entry is encouraged with a limit of 120 boats on the start line. Places are offered on a first come first served basis, and they are expected to be in high demand as this is the only major senior championship in Europe in 2026

20 places will be reserved for U29 sailors until March, so sailors are advised to make plans to enter as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.

The Finn class is delighted to return to the Gdynia, famous for its challenging sailing conditions and great hospitality. With both the Finn Gold Cup and Finn World Masters happening in Brisbane Australia, in February, Gdynia offers the best opportunity for high level competition in Europe in 2026.
