Congratulations to Lisa Darmanin and her cousin and crew member, Jason Waterhouse, who won the silver medal in the Nacra 17 Multi Hull sailing class at the Rio Olympics.
Lisa and Jason were fourth fastest going into the medal race, and finished in second place to the crew from New Zealand. With the points accrued from the previous rounds, and the placings of the other crews in the medal round, their Silver medal in the overall standings was confirmed.
"It's a little bit bittersweet, not going to lie, we wanted that gold, but we sailed an incredible medal race, I don't think we could have done much more out there," Darmanin told reporters.
