After the success of the recent European Championships in Torbole, Italy, the world Techno fleet can’t wait to get back into action at the next international Techno 293 OD class event, which will be the World
Championships. It’s taking place in France, at Saint-Pierre Quiberon from the 29th July to the 5th August, organised by the CDV 56 (Morbihan Sailing Committee). Local clubs come together and work with the ENVSN, the internationally renowned French National Sailing Centre, to welcome a number of international sailing events every year in the magnificent setting of the Bay of Quiberon. A site well-known for its summer thermals and near-perfect sailing conditions for regattas of all descriptions.
The competition website is already on-line.
You’ll find all the info you need to sign-in, or follow the event in real time.

Benoit Tréguilly, President of the Techno 293 OD International Class
We are extremely happy to be organising the 2023 Worlds here in France, and especially in Saint-Pierre Quiberon at the EVNSN centre. Techno 293 was officially born here in 2005 when the FFV (French National Sailing Association) tested it out and decided that it would be from now on be the official monotype board for all Under 17 competitions, then it was recognised by World Sailing and subsequently taken up in more than 60 countries worldwide. The Bay of Quiberon is a magnificent spot, perfect for
a big World Championships like this.
The recent European Championships showed yet again that the class is still extremely strong, especially among younger riders, and this despite the relentless rise of windfoilboarding. We’re expecting at least
350 entrants from 30 or more countries, with the welcome return of the Asian and southern hemisphere nations, sadly absent from the last World Championships due to ongoing Covid restrictions.
It’s going to be a great event and week!
Alain Champy, President of the Morbihan Sailing Committee (CDV 56), organisers of this 2023 World Championships
