EVENT: Sailing: Mixed Multihull (Nacra 17)

Erica Dawson and Micah Wilkinson have been consistently near the front of the mixed Nacra 17 fleet since their Olympic debut at Tokyo 2020.

Dawson showed considerable promise in her junior and youth sailing days and is the only female to have won the Starling National Championships. She earlier campaigned in the 49erFX and had a brief stint in the ILCA 6 (Laser Radial) before teaming up with Wilkinson in 2019. Since then, the duo has broken into the top 10 in the world rankings.

At Paris 2024, Micah Wilkinson and Erica Dawson won New Zealand’s second sailing medal of the Olympics when they secured the bronze in the mixed multihull (Nacra 17).
