International sailing faces pressure from the International Olympic Committee to modernize its format, reduce athlete quotas, and increase sustainability to maintain its status as an Olympic sport.1:02 World Sailing must balance the need for high-performance, foiling classes that showcase state-of-the-art technology with the requirement for accessible, low-cost classes that allow a broad range of nations to compete. To reduce costs and environmental impact, future Olympic events may shift toward providing standardized boats for competitors rather than allowing teams to bring their own equipment, effectively limiting training advantages and travel expenses.13:11 Proposed format changes include shorter, more intense races and a "winner-take-all" final race to improve television appeal and dramatic tension.16:20 The sport remains hindered by a conservative culture and the influence of class associations and boat manufacturers within World Sailing governance.19:39 While foiling is expected to dominate, traditional classes like the ILCA remain essential for maintaining global participation.7:45 The sport must adapt its structure to attract top professional sailors from circuits like the America's Cup and The Ocean Race to remain relevant in the Olympic program.17:05
