From September 19th to 22nd, the Balatonfüredi Yacht Club will host the High Performance Grand Prix, featuring this year’s EuroCup Hungarian round and the National Championship for the 29er class.
Additionally, on the third and fourth days of the event, there will be a ranking competition for the Nacra 15 boat class on a separate course.
The weather forecast for Balatonfüred during the biennial EuroCup event is ideal for sailing, with sunny skies and winds ranging between 5-12 knots.
A total of 14 races are scheduled over the four-day regatta, with nearly 70 sailors from four countries competing on two separate courses. On the evenings of September 20th and 21st, the BYC will host dinners for the participants and their coaches at the club's social center, in collaboration with BYC’s newly launched buffet.
For this year's High Performance Grand Prix, in partnership with Vadnai Bros, each competitor will receive a colorful pulley for their boat, and support staff will be gifted a white CodeZero cap.
Thanks to our growing list of sponsors, no sailor on the podium will go home empty-handed.
Our partners include Vadnai Bros, EQ Love, Tigris Bisztró és Reggeliz?, and Fehérvári Optika. The competition is sponsored by HM Sportért Felel?s Államtitkárság, Nemzeti Sportügynökség Zrt., Sportoló Nemzet program, and the Hungarian Sailing Federation (Magyar Vitorlás Szövetség).
