Notesβ»
- This was probably the least interesting event in the history of Olympic sailing: only one competitor turned up. And in the "first of the planned races they failed to finish," not appearing for the remaining three.
- Richards and Hedberg joined Stan Rowley (in the 1900 5000m team race) in winning an Olympic gold medal despite not finishing their event.
