Medal Races Determine Champions in Nine Olympic Classes
Rick Merriman and Phil Trinter lead Flavio Marazzi and Petter Morland Pedersen during the Star class medal race.
It's not often in a sailing regatta that a single 30-minute race decides the outcome, but that's exactly what happened on the last day of competition for US Sailing's Rolex Miami OCR.
"We didn't necessarily expect to win the gold today but thought we had as good a chance as anybody," said the USA's Phil Trinter (Charlottesville, Va.) after he and skipper Rick Merriman (New York, NY) turned in a performance that secured their spot at the top of the 31-boat Star fleet and the podium.
