The highly anticipated Dragon World Championship by Tivoli Hotels & Resorts officially kicked off today in Vilamoura, welcoming some of the world’s finest Dragon sailors for the first day of racing. With an impressive international fleet on the water, teams set out to make their mark in the opening races of the championship.
It was a perfect sailing day on the water, with steady afternoon winds blowing from 240°, ranging between 13 and 16 knots, accompanied by a slight swell — ideal conditions for competitive racing. One race was completed as scheduled, showcasing high-level performance from the international fleet.
For tomorrow, two back-to-back races are planned, with the first possible Warning Signal at 13:00, depending on weather conditions.
The day ended on a high note with a Gathering Dinner, held at the exclusive Club House created especially for this event. In a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, sailors, team members, and guests came together to share moments of connection, conversation, and celebration.
Agenda for Tomorrow
- Two back-to-back races
- First possible warning signal at 13.00
- Happy hour after races
