Sailing Day 5 Preview: Medals to be decided Saturday
Adjust font size:

Saturday, September 13, is the final day of the Paralympic Sailing competition with medals to be decided in each of the three classes: the 2.4mR single-handed, SKUD 18 double-handed and Sonar three-person keelboat.

2.4mR single-handed

The ever-changing leaderboard changed again on Friday when Paul Tingley (Canada) reclaimed the series lead he lost on Thursday.

Tingley has only a five point lead over Thursday's series leader John Ruf (United States) with Heiko Kroger (Germany) and Jens Andersen (Denmark) a further point away.

There is one day of racing remaining and any of the current top seven overall can win the medals in what has been enthralling competition from Day 1.

The medals will be decided and handed out Saturday afternoon following the final race.

SKUD 18 double-handed

Nick Scandone/Maureen McKinnon Tucker (United States) mathematically clinched the gold medal on Friday, after it was determined there would be only ten races in their series.

There is only one point between John McRoberts/Stacie Louttit (Canada) and Dan Fitzgibbon/Rachael Cox, so the two look set to fight out silver and bronze as the others are too far behind on points to be realistic threats.

Saturday's weather predictions are for a replica of Friday's fluky wind, so anything is possible.

Sonar - 3-Person Keelboat

Bruno Jourdren, Herve Larhant and Nicolas Vimont-Vicary are likely to do well in the pressure cooker of the final day.

The Australians, Germans, Greeks and Norwegians are less than seven points behind the French and the medals could be determined by a wind shift or a current change.

The teams that have been extra conservative for the past two days, hoping to discard the two deep races that they had at the beginning of the regatta, can breath a sigh of relief.

If two races are sailed on Saturday, expect all but the top three to go for broke in the eleventh and deciding race for this very tight fleet.
