In a result that matched their opening race of their first Olympic Regatta, Robert Dickson (Howth YC) and Sean Waddilove (Skerries SC) convincingly won Race 12 of the Men's 49er Skiff event.

Although racing was delayed for several hours due to light winds, the pair were clearly on form from the start of racing by scoring a third place.
