A couple more observations from this…
First off, confirmation of quotas gained from the 2023 Central-South American Laser Sailing Championship last week:
M ILCA7 -
W ILCA6 -
Second, there were some reallocation criteria used to allocate the remaining quota in skiff events:
was awarded the additional ninth quota in men’s 49er on the basis of their result at the 2023 US Open Series (in accordance with the first criteria for reallocation).
was awarded a boat quota in the women’s 49erFX on the basis of their result at the 2022 World Championships (in accordance with the second/third criteria for reallocation).
were awarded boat quotas in the women’s 49erFX via world ranking (in accordance with the fourth criteria for reallocation), since the two regional qualification events were not held, and they did not register a result at the 2022 World Championships.
Lastly, every country who earned automatic entry from the 2021 Junior Pan American Games has now qualified two boats in that class (as allowed). It will be interesting to see if that affects race dynamics in Santiago.
