A fleet of the world’s most promising young sailors — representing over 35 nations — delivered a masterclass in determination, boat-handling, and strategy across the ILCA 6 (Women’s) and ILCA 7 (Men’s) fleets. Twelve scheduled races for the gold groups, 11 for the ILCA 7 Silver fleet, and a final day that could not have been scripted better — this was youth sailing at its finest. Under golden Adriatic skies, with a breeze of 10 to 14 knots filling across the bay, the final two races brought the week to a spectacular close.
