Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Norwegian sailing experienced a strong 2024, highlighted by multiple European Championship titles in Olympic classes and the expansion of the national sailing league concept. Helene Næss and Marie Rønningen secured the European title in the 49er FX class, while Mina Mobech claimed both junior and senior European gold in the iQFOiL class. These performances position Norway with several medal candidates for the upcoming Paris Olympics. The national league model, which provides club-owned boats to participants, continues to grow, with the first division expanding to 18 teams and increased participation in the women’s and youth leagues. RS Feva classes are increasingly adopting this league format to facilitate larger regattas without the logistical burden of transporting private boats.
Looking ahead to 2025, Norway will host three world championships, including the Soling class at Hanke, the offshore short-handed world championship in Oslo, and the Waszp world championship in Sandefjord. The Waszp event has already attracted significant international interest, with a 150-boat entry cap. Meanwhile, the offshore short-handed scene remains competitive, with recent European gold medals in both large and small classes. Despite challenges in securing sufficient practice time in specialized boats like the RC44, the overall outlook for Norwegian competitive sailing remains positive, with a focus on Olympic qualification and the continued development of youth and club-based racing.
