2021 Finn Europeans Moves to Vilamoura After Hyeres Cancellation
5th March 2021
The Finn class is eagerly looking forward to its first visit to Vilamoura since the highly successful European Championship in 1998
Following this week’s cancellation of the French Olympic Week, in Hyères, of which the Finn Open and U23 European Championships was included, the International Finn Class has accepted an offer from the Vilamoura Sailing Center to host the event over the same dates, which remain 10-16 April.
The event is a crucial competition ahead of the all-important Finn Gold Cup, three weeks later in Porto in northern Portugal, which is the final continental qualifier for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, where the last places for Africa and Europe will be decided.
