DAY 1 - RS Aero World and Youth World Champs - Quiberon, France, 2025, FRA

RS Aero World and Youth World Champs - Quiberon, France, 2025, FRA

DAY 1
170 RS Aeros converged on the beautiful Quiberon peninsula in southern Brittany, France for the 7th RS Aero World Championship, combined with the 4th RS Aero Youth World Championship.

The Opening Ceremony and grande Flag Parade provided an opportunity to celebrate each nations participation with sailors full of anticipation for the week ahead.

The race area of Quiberon Bay has provided excellent racing to start the week with an initial light breeze increasing throughout Day 1.

The largest Class this year it the RS Aero 5 with 62 competitors and gender parity with 50% male/female. Riccardo Serra (ITA) leads the rankings from Raphael Olsthoorn (FRA) in 2^nd and Jorgen Kuivonen (EST) in 3^rd. The ever-popular RS Aero 6 is also enjoying record numbers with their 50 boats. Reigning champion Sofiia Naumenko (UKR) leads with 3 wins in her score. Sam Blaker (GBR) is in 2^nd with Francois le Castrec (FRA) in 3^rd.

The ENVSN is the principal French sailing academy set in beautiful environs with a lovely beach and tranquil setting. The race area of Quiberon Bay offers excellent open sea racing, but with some shelter from the Quiberon Peninsula in case of any Atlantic storms!
