The second day of the Olympic Week Comunitat Valenciana Youth, held at the Real Club Náutico de Valencia, was marked by heavy winds on the Valencian coast, forcing the cancellation of all scheduled races.

Today the fleet set sail for the regatta area at around 9:00 am, but upon reaching the mouth of the port, the committee decided to suspend the day's racing, hoisting the Intelligence signal on "H". Given these conditions, all boats returned to shore.

The committee had hoped for an improvement in conditions, but instead they continued to worsen. With heavy rain and winds exceeding 30 knots, it was decided to hoist intelligence on 'A' after 2:00 p.m.

The committee's objective is to maintain the programme modification, bringing forward the start to 9:30 for the 29er fleet, weather permitting. The forecast for this Saturday is complicated, so the committee is analysing the situation minute by minute to ensure both safety and the proper conduct of the races.
