World Sailing proposed Olympic format

1

The proposed Olympic format was passed by the WS council ( 38 approve, 3 reject, 3 abstain) . This format can still change and only really effects the Olympics, Olympics qualifiers and maybe some of World championships. Here is the link to the document: https://d7qh6ksdplczd.cloudfront.net/sailing/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/07211813/FORMAT_WG_EC_REPORT_11_06-final.pdf

I am not posting this to debate the pros and cons of the proposal, but people should be aware that most, if not all, scoring systems will require significant updates to handle the results. Keep in mind that most developers will not be interested in making the necessary changes until the formats are finalized.

Hi Peter

Many thanks for this. In the very unusual case. I was actually informed prior to the approval but told it was confidential at the time. I looked at it then. It doesn’t look too difficult to implement so will make those changes soon. Someone wants to test it in April. When would you like it for?

Regards
Jon
