Spain shines at the World Cup Sub 21 of ILCA that has been held from August 22 to 29 in Dublin Bay: Karol Krupski achieves the silver Sub 19, while Daniel Giménez ends up fourth in the same category. In ILCA 6 there are Marga Perelló and Adriana Castro, who end up in the Top 10 World Sub 21. The absolute titles have been for the German Ole Schweckendiek (ILCA 7) and the Dutch Roos Wind (ILCA 6).

212 regatists from 38 countries have competed for six days in Ireland for the world title Sub 21 of the Olympic classes ILCA 6 (female) and ILCA 7 (male). In total there have been 12 very long races: from the extreme conditions of 25 knots of waves and wind on the first day and third day, to the exhausting days of six hours in the water.

The Majorcan Karol Krupski seal with this silver medal his great performance in this World Cup, which began in the third square of the provisional podium. In the third day he lost positions in the classification but his determination led him to climb positions in the following days, becoming fifth, then fourth and finally, today Friday, second. In addition, the young regatist of the CV Puerto Andratx has been 15th in the absolute general, a place behind his partner in the 2032 team of the RFEV, Fernando Abella (14th).
