Dutch sailor Paul Hameeteman has won the fourth leg of the Switch Cup Guess Jeans racing circuit. The event, which serves as the international championship for the Switch One Design class, was flawlessly managed by the Circolo Vela Marvelia.

Another long day on the water at the 470 Junior World Championships in Gdynia. The day started on time, but the rest of the schedule brought a few surprises.

The final series got under way in style at the 2026 ILCA 6 Youth European Championships & Open European Trophy, with sailors enjoying wonderful sailing conditions of 9 to 12 knots throughout the afternoon in Thessaloniki.

On a brilliantly sunny morning, a slightly unsteady NE 12 kts gave Ruthven as an obvious windward mark for the seven Redwings and three One-Designs who came out to race on Saturday.

After two races sailed in volatile and highly challenging conditions on Switzerland’s Lake Geneva, Eric Monnin’s SUI100 Duclop leads the International Six Metre Swiss Championships in the Open fleet.

Sunderland 2026 was probably the tightest and most open Streaker Nationals ever. At least six boats were still in close contention going into the final day, but it was Martin Penty from Beaver SC who held his nerve to win the final race.

Manuel Vlacich and Franco Deganutti, sailors from Società Vela Oscar Cosulich, Italy, have completed the circumnavigation of Sømmarøy, a Norwegian island located above the Arctic Circle, famous worldwide for having declared itself a “time-free zone.”

“The time on the boat, and the time on the water, has been the first time in the four years since my injuries, that I have felt more like that previous version of myself. We’re not talking about our injuries. We’re just people going for a sail.”

It’s Thursday. You’re sat at your desk – its hot outside and you’re thinking about sailing, big skies, big seas, 12 – 18 knots of wind over the perfect waves at the perfect downwind angle.
