Miami, FL, April 14, 2024 - The 2024 Star Western Hemisphere Championship, hosted by Biscayne Bay Yacht Club in Miami, concluded today with an exhilarating display of sailing skills and tight competition. With 33 teams representing 7 nations, the event showcased fantastic Star boat racing over three intense days of competition.

Another three races were sailed on Day Two of the 2024 Star Western Hemisphere in Miami, Florida. A wavy Biscayne Bay offered a great stage for a regatta with a steady Northeasterly breeze blowing from 11 knots in the first run (race 4 of the Championship) to 18 in the last one – sixth overall.

Day One of the 2024 Star Western Hemisphere wasn’t an easy one, both for the competitors nor for the Race Committee. The first race was sailed with a dying breeze still coming from 330 that didn’t even allor all of the 33 teams to finish within the time limit, then, after quite the wait on the water, the wind switched and for race 2 and 3 came from 130, starting light and then picking up.

The 2024 Star Western Hemisphere will start tomorrow in Miami, Florida, hosted by Biscayne Bay Yacht Club. 33 entries representing 7 nations will show up on the starting line. Among them the actual 2023 Star Western Hemisphere Champions Augie Diaz and Bruno Prada, who will give their best to keep the title, using the home waters as a competitive edge.
