Quite telling that Germany (right now) would qualify in all events except men's/women's skiff, obviously that is their weak spot. The top three almost in home waters - literally so in the case of the Dutch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickyc707 310 Posted August 16, 2023 #84 Share Posted August 16, 2023 And finally today's bit of useless information. The first woman to win a gold medal at the OG was in sailing in 1900 in an early example of a "mixed event". https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hélène_de_Pourtalès I believe the image is of her in her sailing kit.
