With the exception of 1904, sailing was thereafter always a part of the Olympic program. The sailing program in 1900 consisted of a total of eight sailing classes. For six classes, the races were scheduled from 20 – 27 May at the river Seine around Meulan, and several series of three races were held for the largest classes from 1–5 August on the North Atlantic off the coast of Le Havre. Approximately 150 sailors in 64 boats (the numbers of boats and competitors are not reliable, as in the official report some figures of the World exhibition and the Olympic Games are mixed) from 6 nations competed, including 1 woman, Hélène de Pourtalès, who won a gold medal in the 1 to 2 ton.[1]VenuesDuring the early years of the Olympic movement there were no strict rules for the assignment of venues. For the Olympic sailing in 1900 the organizers decided to combine the Olympic sailing for the smaller yachts with the regattas of the Exposition Universelle on the river Seine near Meulan. For the larger yachts an Olympic regatta was held at Le Havre.MeulanCercle de la Voile de Paris Bassin Olympique de Meulan Les Mureaux Burgee of the Cercle de la Voile de ParisWikimedia | © OpenStreetMapGeneral informationStatusCompletedTypeClub HouseAddress30, quai Albert GlandazTown or city78130 Les MureauxCountry FranceCoordinates49°00′1″N 1°54′54″EElevationSealevelOwnerCercle de la Voile de ParisDuring the Olympic regattas of the Exposition Universelle of 1900 there were more than 100 yachts racing from Paris, Rouen, Cannes, Nantes and Arcachon and yachts from England, Germany, the United States and Holland. The Bassin Olympique was the river Seine near the Cercle de la Voile de Paris that served as the Olympic harbor.The race conditions at Meulan during the Olympic regatta were not ideal. A light breeze could hardly make the sailing interesting. Since the river Seine mainly runs from east to west, the light north-easterly breeze was partly blocked by buildings or trees on the river bank, thus heavily influencing the regatta.Le HavreDuring the second part of the Olympic regatta the Atlantic Ocean was used for the races of the 10 – 20 ton and the 20+ ton yachts. The conditions during the regatta were so good that the 10 – 20 Ton class was able to sail the complete 22 nautical mile triangular course. The premises of the Société des Régates du Havre were used as Olympic harbor.La Société des Régates du Havre Le HavreWikimedia | © OpenStreetMapGeneral informationStatusDestroyedTypeClub HouseCountry FranceCoordinates49°29′30″N 0°5′45″EElevationSealevelOwnerLa Société des Régates du HavreCourse areasSince there were two venues there were two course areas.

Several teams had crews from multiple countries, and in one case, they won a gold medal. This team, of the United Kingdom and France, is attributed as a mixed team.Map of Participating Sailing Countries at the 1900 Summer Olympics ● Green = Participating for the first time France (FRA) Germany (GER) Great Britain (GBR) Netherlands (NED) Switzerland (SUI) United States (USA) Mixed team (ZZX)Classes (equipment)Sailing during the turn of the century was not as well defined as it became later during the 20th century. Racing rules were mostly defined by local yacht clubs or in some cases by a National Yachting Federation. Also, boats were not standardized to what are now called One Design or One Builder classes. Therefore, many handicap systems or systems that put yachts into different categories were used. In 1892, Auguste Godinet developed a formula that placed different boats in different Ton categories. This rule was adopted by the Union des yachts français and later by several other National Yachting Federations such as the Société Nautique de Genève. For the sailing at the 1900 Olympics this rule was chosen to determine the tonnage of a yacht.For the smallest class, 0 – ½ Ton, among others, Larks were used. These Larks, copies of the Davis Lark and of the Sorceress designed by Linton Hope, became famous One Designs in France (Monotype de Chatou at the beginning of the 20th century.The Olympics were open for the following classes:ClassTypeVenueEventSailorsFirst OGOlympics so farOpen ClassUndefinedMeulanUnknown190010 – ½ TonUndefinedMeulanUnknown190010 – ½ TonUndefinedMeulanUnknown19002½ – 1 TonUndefinedMeulanUnknown19001½ – 1 TonUndefinedMeulanUnknown190021 – 2 TonUndefinedMeulanUnknown190011 – 2 TonUndefinedMeulanUnknown190022 – 3 TonUndefinedMeulanUnknown190012 – 3 TonUndefinedMeulanUnknown190023 – 10 TonUndefinedMeulanUnknown190013 – 10 TonUndefinedMeulanUnknown1900210 – 20 TonUndefinedLe HavreUnknown1900120+ TonUndefinedLe HavreUnknown19001Legend: = Mixed gender eventInshore classes (Meulan)Lark 0 – 0.5 Ton Sidi-Fekkar 0.5 - 1 Ton Lerina 1 – 2 Ton Phoebus 2 – 3 Ton Turquoise 3 – 10 TonOffshore classes (Le Havre)Laurea 10 – 20 Ton Colombine 20+ TonRace schedule[edit] ● Meulan competition ● Le Havre competition1900MayAugust20 Sun21 Mon22 Tue23 Wed24 Thu25 Fri26 Sat27 Thu1 Fri2 Sat3 Sun4 Mon5 Tue6 WedSailing11 1 11 1 11 1 1 1No wind1111Total gold medals133411Medal summary[edit]The results of the individual races are known; however, in the past there has not been consensus on which races were considered "Olympic" and thus who the Olympic medalists were. The Official Report,[2] International Olympic Committee (IOC),[3] International Sailing Federation (ISAF)[4] and Sports Reference[5] present different medalists. The IOC has never decided which events were "Olympic" and which were not.[6] Occasionally, sources differ on the nationality of competitors (such as H. MacHenry, alternately listed as French or American). For example, the medalists in the 3 – 10 Ton races are shown in the various sources as:ReportRaceGoldSilverBronzeOfficial Report[2]Race 1Henri Gilardoni (FRA)Henri Smulders (NED)Maurice Gufflet (FRA)Race 2Howard Taylor (GBR)Maurice Gufflet (FRA)H.

MacHenry (USA)In all classes at Meulan except the Open class, there were two distinct "finals." Boats were assigned time handicaps according to their weight within each class and prizes were handed out to the winners of each race. The IOC initially recognized the winner of the first race in each class as Olympic champion except in the case of the 10 – 20 ton class, which was decided on aggregate time over three races. However, currently the participants of both first and second races in three classes (0 – 0.5t, 1 – 2t and 2 – 3t) are present in the IOC database[7] as medalists. That is, the second race in each of these three classes is recognized by the IOC and for each of these events two gold, two silver, and two bronze medals were retrospectively awarded by the IOC. In the 3 – 10 Ton race, however, only the second race winners are listed with Olympic medals.The data below notes all races and medalists of the regattas of the Games of the second Olympiad, as well as of the Exposition Universelle and counts all winners as medalists, because the IOC website currently affirms a total of 95 medal events in the Games.[8]EventGoldSilverBronzeOpen class details Great Britain (GBR) Lorne Currie John Gretton Linton Hope Algernon Maudslay Germany (GER) Paul Wiesner Georg Naue Heinrich Peters Ottokar Weise France (FRA) Émile Michelet0 to .5 ton Race 1 details[a] France (FRA) Pierre Gervais France (FRA) Texier (helmsman) Texier (crew) Jean-Baptiste Charcot Robert Linzeler France (FRA) Henri Monnot Léon Tellier Gaston Cailleux0 to .5 ton Race 2 details France (FRA) Émile Sacré France (FRA) Texier (helmsman) Texier (crew) Jean-Baptiste Charcot Robert Linzeler France (FRA) Pierre Gervais.5 to 1 ton Race 1 details[a] Great Britain (GBR) Lorne Currie John Gretton Linton Hope Algernon Maudslay France (FRA) Jules Valton Félix Marcotte William Martin Jacques Baudrier Jean Le Bret France (FRA) Émile Michelet Marcel Meran.5 to 1 ton Race 2 details France (FRA) Louis Auguste-Dormeuil France (FRA) Émile Michelet Marcel Meran France (FRA) Jules Valton Félix Marcotte William Martin Jacques Baudrier Jean Le Bret1 to 2 ton Race 1 details[a] Switzerland (SUI) Hermann de Pourtalès Hélène de Pourtalès Bernard de Pourtalès France (FRA) François Vilamitjana Auguste Albert Albert Duval Charles Hugo France (FRA) Jacques Baudrier Lucien Baudrier Dubosq Édouard Mantois1 to 2 ton Race 2 details Germany (GER) Paul Wiesner Georg Naue Heinrich Peters Ottokar Weise Switzerland (SUI) Hermann de Pourtalès Hélène de Pourtalès Bernard de Pourtalès France (FRA) François Vilamitjana Auguste Albert Albert Duval Charles Hugo2 to 3 ton Race 1 details[a] Mixed team (ZZX) William Exshaw (GBR) Frédéric Blanchy (FRA) Jacques Le Lavasseur (FRA) France (FRA) Léon Susse Jacques Doucet Auguste Godinet Henri Mialaret France (FRA) Ferdinand Schlatter de Cottignon Émile Jean-Fontaine2 to 3 ton Race 2 details Mixed team (ZZX) William Exshaw (GBR) Frédéric Blanchy (FRA) Jacques Le Lavasseur (FRA) France (FRA) Léon Susse Jacques Doucet Auguste Godinet Henri Mialaret France (FRA) Auguste Donny3 to 10 ton Race 1 details[a] France (FRA) Henri Gilardoni Netherlands (NED) Henri Smulders Chris Hooijkaas Arie van der Velden France (FRA) Maurice Gufflet A.

Ian Buchanan, first president of the International Society of Olympic Historians, stated, "Given the possible awarding of cash prizes, the "Olympic status" of this sport in 1900 must be in question. It is not exactly certain if the prizes were cash or "objets d’art" of the values listed, thus, for now, I have retained yachting as an Olympic sport in 1900."[11]Other informationDuring the sailing regattas at the 1900 Summer Olympics among others the following persons were competing (or owning yachts) in the various classes:Celebrities France (FRA), Édouard Alphonse James de Rothschild Switzerland (SUI), Hermann de PourtalèsFirst female Olympic gold medalist:[12] Switzerland (SUI), Hélène de PourtalèsÉdouard Alphonse James de Rothschild
