Lima qualified as a skipper for the Portuguese squad in the 49er class at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing by placing twelfth and receiving a berth from the World Championships in Melbourne, Australia. Teaming with crew member Francisco Andrade in the opening series, the Portuguese duo recorded a net score of 100 points to establish an eleventh-place finish in a fleet of nineteen boats, narrowly missing a spot for the medal race by France's Emmanuel Dyen and Yann Rocherieux by a single grade.
At the 2014 ISAF Sailing World Championships in Santander, Spain, Lima and his new partner José Costa set their best career record with a fifth-place finish in the men's 49er class to secure a spot on the Portuguese sailing team for the 2016 Summer Olympics.
