After 31 May 2015 - 1315 EUR - 75% late surcharge

We are happy to see a daily growing entry list with 80 teams from 18 countries already, but we are expecting more to come to compete against well-known names. See the full list of entries.

All sailors coming to Middelfart in June (or sailors still considering the participation), will find a lot of useful information and good arguments in favour of taking part and coming to Denmark from the IMCA’s site visit report. From this summary you’ll find both useful facts and numbers illustrated with pictures about Denmark, Middelfart, logistics, marina, racing area, facilities, accommodation, social events and leisure time options etc. Use this to make up your mind or make your stay in Middelfart even more enjoyable.

At the same time, do not hesitate to book rooms for the event as well.
