2026 Fireball World Championship Aftermovie

The 2026 Fireball World Championship, hosted by the Royal Torbay Yacht Club, saw 85 boats competing with sailors from 14 nations represented. The week saw a range of conditions, from high winds at the beginning to a light wind conclusion and just about everything in-between on Tor Bay. The legends of the class were celebrated midweek, while a host of younger sailors are coming through the ranks which is helping ensure that the high performance dinghy has a bright future. We take a look at the racing each day and talk to the sailors to find out more about the racing, the event, and the class itself.
