Final scheduled day of sailing Medal Races will complete the Olympic Sailing events at Marseille.
The day started well with the mixed 470 Dinghy medal race Gold won by Lara Vadlau and Lukas Maehr of Austria.
Keiju Okada and Miho Yoshioka of Japan stepped up to take Silver. While Sweden’s Anton Dahlberg and Lovisa Karlsson took the Bronze after a close battle with Spain’s Jordi Xammar and Nora Brugman.
Then the day descended into farce, when John Gimson and Anna Burnet, sitting in Nacra 17 bronze medal place, missed an OCS call at the start of their medal race and were disqualified.
Ruggero Tita and Caterina Banti of Italy confirmed their Nacra 17 Gold, Mateo Majdalani and Eugenia Bosco of Argentina took Silver and New Zealand’s Micah Wilkinson and Erica Dawson the Bronze.
Men’s Kite final postponed to Friday.
Formula Kite – Ellie Aldridge wins Gold after taking two Final Series race wins.
Lauriane Nolot of France slipped down to Silver. Annelous Lammerts of Holland took the Bronze, Daniela Moroz of the USA finished fourth.
