After the many months of anticipation and a week of intermittent rain, Weymouth delivered the finest of days for the 29er practice race and welcoming opening ceremony, with 22 knots of wind and sparkling sunshine.
205 entries, 410 sailors from 25 countries have made their way to the 2012 British Olympic venue to sail out of the high performance and world renowned Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy and so far it has done nothing but deliver. After three days of measurement to ensure all teams are competing fairly, competitors have just one more sleep, full of excitement and no doubt a few nerves before the biggest championship of the year.
Sponsored by Musto, Marlow and Ovington Boats, Day 1 of racing commences on Sunday 30th July at 11 am with a windy forecast and the competitors to be split into four fleets, across two race courses.
Thank you to our generous sponsors and volunteers for supporting the 2023 World Championships and helping make this event one to remember.
