Kingston is proud to represent Canada as the host of this great event and the organizing committee is determined to make this the best event ever.
“It is exciting to be able to host the world’s best youth sailors here in Canada, and I am especially pleased that the Olympic Harbour in Kingston is the venue of choice. The Kingston organizers have a strong tradition of hosting excellent events with great sailing conditions.” Fiona Kidd, Chair of the ISAF Youth Worlds Subcommittee.
