22. Junior European Championship 1988

Athens, Greece, July 31-August 8, 21 entries.

Malte then won the next two with Villalonga winning another in race 5. Malte won the sixth and Chivikov the last, but Malte had done enough to win the regatta.

25. Junior European Championship 1991

Gdansk, Poland, August 18-25, 28 entries from 11 countries.

The wind ranged from Force 2-5 with excellent weather conditions. Xavier Garcia led from the start and won the first 4 races. Then a DSQ in race 5 for rocking put the pressure on. Going into the last race a 17th would have been good enough but he held out for a 5th and won by 20 points ahead of second overall Carl Akerson. Garcia was sailing Jose Doreste's old Roga Finn.

26. Junior European Championship 1992

Caprilo, Italy, July 3-13, 27 entries from 11 countries.

Sebastien won the final race as well to win the championship.

27. Junior European Championship 1993

L'Estartit, Spain, June 3-12, 16 entries.

The bronze also seemed destined to go to Poland but Mateusz Kusznierewicz lost a protest in the last race, which meant that third place went to Italian Simone Cercello.
