Yacht Club Punta del Este welcomed the competitors in grand style with a opening ceremony with all the pomp and circumstance. Sponsors were thanked, officials welcomed and the countries flags were raised all to the tune of the military band. In a fitting remembrance, SCIRA Representative asked for a moment of silence of fellow Snipe sailor and Past Commodore Fred Schenck who had passed away the day previously.
After the ceremonies everyone gathered at the club for cocktails & food and a chance to greet friends before the competition begins.
