This event will be the first major Hansa Class championship to be held in Northern Europe since the 2016 Hansa Class World Championships in Medemblik. We are grateful to the other countries who expressed interest in hosting this event, and look forward to working with the Royal Yacht Club Sneek to facilitate an excellent championship”.
