Sailing at the 2008 Summer Olympics - Yngling class

The Yngling class competition at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing took place from August 10 to 17 in Qingdao, at the Qingdao International Marina.

15 teams of three sailors each competed in this Yngling keelboat competition.

Points were assigned based on the finishing position in each race (1 for first, 2 for second, etc.). The points were totaled from the top 7 results of the first 8 races (usually 9 of 10, but two races were cancelled because of bad weather), with lower totals being better. If a pair was disqualified or did not complete the race, 16 points were assigned for that race (one more than the number of boats). The top 10 pairs then competed in the final race, with placings counting double for that race. The team with the lowest total score won.
