18 foot dinghy

The 18 foot Dinghy was used in the 1920 Summer Olympics as a double handed Olympic class. One team was present at the starting line and won the gold. Three races were scheduled, with final places decided by total points with point-for-place scoring for each race. Only one race was started with only Great Britain competing but accounts vary as to if they actually finished the race.

Sources vary, giving the only participant the credits for the gold medal. Others rank them as AC?
