Sailing at the 2023 Pan American Games – Snipe
International sporting event
The Snipe competition of the sailing events at the 2023 Pan American Games in Santiago was held from October 30 to November 4 at the Cofradia Nautica del Pacifico.
Points were assigned based on the finishing position in each race (1 for first, 2 for second, etc.). The points were totaled from the top 9 results of the first 10 races, with lower totals being better. If a team was disqualified or did not complete the race, 9 points were assigned for that race (as there were 8 teams in this competition). The top 5 teams at that point competed in the final race, with placings counting double for final score. The team with the lowest total score won.
Julio Alsogaray and Malena Sciarra from Argentina won the gold medal after finishing second in the medal race. The podium was completed with Ernesto Rodrigues and Kathleen Tock from the United States and Rafael Martins and Juliana Duque from Brazil.[1]
