The ILCA 6 is the ideal class for sailors progressing from the ILCA 4 or transitioning from youth sailing into more advanced single-handed dinghy performance. Featuring a 5.76 m² sail, the ILCA 6 uses the same hull as all ILCA models but is equipped with a medium-power rig that balances control and speed, making it suitable for a wide range of conditions.
Recommended for sailors weighing 55 to 70 kg, the ILCA 6 is the preferred choice for many competitive youth athletes and lighter adult sailors. Its demanding yet manageable setup helps sailors develop strong technical skills, precise boat handling and tactical awareness on the racecourse.
Recognised as an international racing class, the ILCA 6 features in major youth championships, national circuits, and club-level regattas. It remains one of the most popular pathways towards high-level single-handed sailing, offering an excellent blend of challenge, performance and accessibility.
