• UPDATE AGE LIMIT: The F18 Associations have decided to modify the age limit of youth sailors for 2025 F18 Worlds to “Under 26 yo” (U26). This means the age limit has gone up by 1 year and will be applied to the age entry limit for New Gen F18 Regatta as well.

Welcome to the New Gen F18 Regatta, a collaboration between Nacra Sailing and Les Ailes de Saint-Tropez, designed specifically for late Gen Z sailors to showcase their skills!

Mark your calendars for October 19th to 22nd, 2024 and join us at YCST in St. Tropez for a thrilling F18 sailing event. This regatta features 16-20 teams racing on four Nacra F18 Evolution cats provided by Nacra Sailing, with a dynamic swap-on-water racing format to keep the competition fair and exciting.

Our mission with this event is to provide youth sailors between 17-24 years old the opportunity to continue their passion for racing after outgrowing the youth sailing classes. 

The regatta includes three qualification days, where teams will battle for their place in the final race. On the final day, the top teams will compete for the ultimate prize: a free Nacra F18 Evolution to race with during the F18 Worlds 2025.

Are you a New Gen sailor?

If you’re aged 18-25 years old during the F18 Worlds 5 – 11 july 2025, this event is tailor-made for you.

Take your chance and apply your team now to shine during this regatta in the beautiful setting of the French Rivièra!
