The scoring for this event is another new trial system. It’s complicated and SI 18 needs careful reading to understand how it works. I “think” it works as per this graphic, but this is based off the Provisional Results and is not the official….. 🤔

The event will publish what is the official version in due course…..

🇬🇧 Elliot Hanson leads the ILCA 7 World Championship after 11 races

A strong day for the British sailors in Dun Laoghaire sees Elliot Hanson move into the overall lead of the 2026 ILCA 7 Men’s World Championship.

With 11 races completed and two discards:

🥇 Elliot Hanson — 1st | 62 pts
🥉 Michael Beckett — 3rd | 65 pts
6️⃣ Finley Dickinson — 6th | 83 pts

Elliot Hanson holds a two-point advantage over Singapore’s Ryan Lo, with fellow sailor Micky Beckett just three points behind. Fin Dickinson is also well placed in 6th, giving GBR three sailors inside the top six going into tomorrow’s Medal Race Series.

🇬🇧 Arthur Farley and Alastair Brown are also racing in the Gold Fleet as the championship moves towards its conclusion.

Two days down for the ILCA7 World Championships in Dun Laoghaire.

The cream is already rising to the top, but the hard work put into the preliminary series of 5 races only counts the overall result going forward into the Final Series.

So tomorrow racing is split into Gold/Silver/Bronze fleets etc.

Racing got underway today at the 2026 ILCA 7 Men’s World Championship in Dún Laoghaire, with the first three races of the qualifying series completed.
A partly sunny start to the day with 6–7 knots of wind and small waves, the breeze built to around 8 knots under cloudy skies, before rising further to 10–11 knots in the late afternoon with waves building to around a metre and light rain.

This evening is the Finals Medal Racing for the top 10 sailors in the Sailing Grand Slam Olympic Classes Regatta on the LA28 Olympic waters of San Pedro. GBR will have 4 sailors competing; Hannah, Matilda, Micky & Elliot.

Winds have varied, but on the whole it has been windy power sailing conditions on relatively flat water with the right being favoured near the Port of Los Angeles.

The event has been trialling the Vakaros RaceSense system, an electronic system for immediate monitoring of OCS, which has resulted in far fewer recalls than is normally seen. It also has the benefit of live tracking for spectators.

Each class will sail 2 Finals Races, the overall scores from the week’s racing will be condensed for the Finals per SI 7.1.7:
The top 10 boats assigned to compete in the Finals will have their Qualification Series score adjusted as follows:
a) When the scoring difference between two consecutive boats is greater than 9 points, the
score of the lower-placed boat will be reduced so that the difference with the boat ahead of her is 9 points.
b) When the scoring difference between two consecutive boats is less than or equal to 9 points
and the score of the boat ahead has been changed, the points difference is maintained by adjusting the lower placed boat’s score.
c) If after applying SI 7.1.7 (a) and (b) the score of any boat is greater than 18 points more than the score of the boat in third place, the score of such a boat will be changed so that the difference is 18 points.
d) If after applying SI 7.1.7(a) to (c) there is a tie between two or more boats, it shall be broken by their rank in the Qualification Series.

The ILCA6 start at 22:30, the ILCA7 at 23:30 (BST) Follow the Finals Medal Racing here:
