Top country at the 2024 Paris Test Event was France with 4 Gold and 1 Silver.
All attention will now focus on the Allianz Sailing World Championships in The Netherlands, 10 to 20 August.
This will be the first opportunity for nations to confirm their place on the start line at the Olympics, as well as an opportunity for other British Sailing team members to challenge for a place in the British, Paris Olympic 2024 team.
Although the Test Event competitors are the best ranked Brits in the current World Sailing ranking in their speciality, the RYA selectors will be looking for outstanding performances at the World Championships to fine tune the weak spots revealed in their Paris 2024 team selections.
