The National Yacht Club's Finn Lynch was Ireland’s youngest Olympic helmsman when he competed at the Rio Games in 2016 at the age of 20 and, along with four other Irish sailors, is seeking a second Olympics at the final qualifier in Vilamoura
Ireland is hoping a five-man team in Portugal can take one of two final nation places in the final men's Laser Olympic qualifier in Vilamoura starting on Monday.
Vilamoura International Regatta is the last chance for the Laser sailors to secure a place for Ireland for Tokyo and will see a fleet of 120 boats looking for a last-minute speed edge just 100 days out from the Olympic Regatta itself.
