It is anticipated, based on our discussions with World Sailing, that all 8 events that will be held at the Paris 2024 Olympics, indicated by the “(Olympic)” in the above Table, will serve as Country Qualifying Events for Paris 2024.
The distribution of the 168 + 4 Named athlete quota among the 12 events will be announced at the same time as the Country Qualifying System, which we anticipate will be announced in the November 2021 time-frame, 2-years prior to the Santiago 2023 Panam Games.
As an interesting note, the Snipe Class has been used in every Panam Games that has included Sailing (only Mexico City 1955 did not include Sailing), and the Lightning is the second longest included Equipment Class, only missing the 1951 and 2003 Pan Am Games.
2019 Pan Am Games

Per World Sailing, the Snipe will be a mixed discipline. Teams must sail mixed in the qualifier.

Class selection for the 2015 Toronto Pan American Game
The Executive Committee of the PASAF met via teleconference last Tuesday, 14th August, and confirmed the class selection for the 2015 Toronto Pan American Games:
RS:X men
RS:X women
Laser Standard men
Laser Radial women
Sunfish Open
Snipe Open
Lightning
MIXED J24 (crew of 4)
Open Hobie 16 MIXED
These are the same classes that competed in Puerto Vallarta in 2011.
As many of you know, the PASAF Executive has been considering the possibility of adding the 49er to the slate of classes for 2015. Toronto 2015, the organizing committee of the games, has confirmed their support of the addition of another Olympic class. The PASAF Executive will be investigating the possibility of a 10th Medal with PASO/ODEPA, but will not add a 10th medal if we cannot do so without compromising the quality of the racing in the event.
The Snipe has been in the Pan Am Games since its inception.
Below are the results for the Snipe since 1951
