Chris Grube and Luke Patience were edged out of claiming a medal in the men’s 470 dinghy, after failing to improve on their overall fifth place heading into the final race.

Australian duo Mathew Belcher and Will Ryan dominated the event from the start and cruised to a gold medal which never looked in doubt after cruising to victory.
