The Northern Hemisphere Edition of Steering the Course, World Sailing’s global women’s sailing festival, will start today [Friday 21 May] to Sunday May 30.

Antigua, Barbados, Croatia, Denmark, Great Britain, Hungary, Hong Kong, Iceland, Japan, Malta, Slovakia and the United States are among the member national authorities that have actively planned and promoted various activities.

From May 24 until May 30, players will take part in Formula 18, with boats bearing the Steering the Course branding as they race around a virtual racetrack in Copenhagen.
The number one ranked eSailor in this challenge will qualify for the 2021 Electronic Sailing World Championship PlayOffs – and if that player is not a woman, then the number one ranked woman will qualify as well.
