The International Association For Disabled Sailing (IFDS) has published the rankings for Paralympic Classes following the completion of the 2013 ranking events.
Rankings in the One-Person Keelboat, 2.4mR; Two-Person Keelboat, SKUD18; Three-Person Keelboat, Sonar are based on the four regattas in USA, France, Netherlands, and Ireland.
In the One Person Keelboat ranked number 1 is Megan Pascoe of Great Britain followed by Bjornar Erikstad of Norway and the current Gold medallist Helena Lucas also of Great Britain in third place.
Nepean Sailing Club’s Aaron Wong-Sing is in 29th place while our Canada Games Gold Medallist Christine Lavallee sits 31st. Both have improved on their rankings since 2012 and with two events in North American in 2014 they will each have an opportunity to move further up the rankings.
