Sailing competitions at the 2024 Summer Olympics were held from July 28th to August 8th at Marseille Marina.[1][2] The number of sailors competing across ten different events at these Games has been reduced from 350 to 330, with an equal distribution between men and women. Furthermore, several significant changes are instituted in the sailing program for Paris 2024 to reinforce gender equality and vast diversity among the nations in the qualifying process.

Events were top of the agenda again with Kiteboarding, Windsurfing, Keelboats, Match Racing and Offshore Racing all looking for inclusion in the games. The International Sailing Federation took the approach of raising the number of mixed events up to two, for the purpose of maintaining gender balance.

Regarding the option of introducing the controversial Mixed Offshore Event, the IOC expressed major concerns as this was a bold format involving competition taking place over days and away from protected areas. Solid concerns were about security, safety, fairness towards religious, moral and ethical creeds.

Qualification

[edit]
Further information: Sailing at the 2024 Summer Olympics – Qualification

The number of sailors competing across ten different events has been reduced from 350 to 330, with an equal distribution between men and women. Aiming for vast gender equality and diversity among the nations, the International Federation, World Sailing, has ratified several amendments to the qualifying process.[2]

The qualification period started at the 2023 Sailing World Championships in The Hague, Netherlands, where 107 places, about forty percent of the total quota, had been awarded to the highest-ranked NOCs across ten different sailing events. Seven places will be distributed to sailors representing the highest-finishing, not previously qualified NOCs at each of the 2024 Men's ILCA 7 and Women's ILCA 6 World Championships. Each ILCA continental qualifiers will award two quota places with the exception of Asia, which will award one quota place at the 2023 Asian Games in China and two quota places at the Asian Olympic qualifier in Thailand.[2]

The remainder of the total quota was attributed to the eligible MNAs through the 2024 Last Chance Regatta in Hyères, France (39 boats in total) and as part of the World Sailing Emerging Nations Program (two boats per gender each in windsurfing and dinghy). Four quota places (two per gender) were entitled to the NOCs competing in the men's ILCA 7 and women's ILCA 6 under the Tripartite Commission.[6]

As the host country, France reserves one quota place in each of the ten sailing classes.[2]
