Mixed day for our 49ers, with some excellent highlights (Fantela brothers achieving our second race victory in Aarhus...). Lasers are back on track after a poor day, while RS:Xs were quite decent.

 

We will not take more than 3 Olympic quotas here, but I am quite confident we'll qualify in 7/10 classes by the end.

Wait, there are already Olympic quotas up for grabs?

Yes, 40% of total quotas to be exact.

We got some more classic Aarhus weather and it seems like it gave the Danish sailors the home water advantage that we hoped for.

Fantastic to see Ida and Marie in the lead and Rindom as well. 

Also a very fine start from our RS:X sailors and decent from Lin and CP.

Som very fine races from the 49ers but they need to be more consistent to get the Olympic quota that we hoped for there.

First worldwide qualification, I believe

RS:X started today and finally great results of Yes, we had some good ones before, but our windsurfers are our best class.

Currently we have virtually quotas in both RS:X, women's Laser Radial. Also we are one place away from quota in men's 49er and six away in women's 470. I hope that we will qualify in all those disciplines already here. In next year we should grab quota in men's Finn and men's Laser.

I haven't ever watched Sailing before so if I understand this correctly you want the lowest amount of points?
