From 13 to 16 February, the Cannes Yacht Club is organising the famous International Finn Week. More than 70 competitors will race in the harbour of Cannes, with an exceptional line-up.
The year 2024 is off to a flying start for the Yacht Club de Cannes, which welcomes the international elite of the former Olympic solitaire who has seen sailing legends such as Pol Elvström, Russell Coutts, Ben Ainslie, Giles Scott... and France's Serge Maury, Olympic champion in Munich, and Philippe Presti, two-time world champion.
Winner in 2022 and 2023, current world number one in front of 1053 competitors from 37 nations, vice-champion of Europe last year, the Rochelais Laurent Haÿ puts his title on the line during Finn's biggest event held in France.
Jean-François Cutugno, President of the Yacht Club de Cannes, said: "This International Week not only kicks off our light sailing regatta season, but is all the more important and popular as the Finn European Championship will take place here in Cannes from 21 to 25 October. We are expecting 150 boats!"
