Day one of the U.S. Olympic Team Trials - Sailing greeted competitors with 11-13 knots of breeze gusting to 15 with 3-5 foot swell for the 470s and 49ers, and slightly calmer conditions for the iQFOiLs and Men's Kites.

Stu McNay (Providence, RI) and Lara Dallman-Weiss (Shoreview, MN) took the first race win of Trials in the Mixed 470, kicking off what will be a riveting week of racing across five classes in Miami as 61 athletes leave it all out on the field for the chance to represent Team USA at Paris 2024.

Points are naturally close after one day of racing with few scores on the board, but it's shaping up to be a battle to the very end with the top talent from across the country. Athletes wrapped up quickly upon returning to shore and headed home to reset for another day in a marathon eight-day regatta.
