With 14 nations on the podium, Great Britain’s four golds and two silvers led the list, followed by France and New Zealand with one gold, one silver and two bronze medals each. The top USA finisher was Daniela Moroz, fourth in the Women’s Formula Kite, and Canada’s Sarah Douglas who was 17th in the ILCA 6.
