Biography

Luigi De Manincor was a crewmember on the "Italia", the yacht which contested the 8 metres class in Kiel during the 1936 Olympics. After six of seven races, the Italians trailed Germany by 2 points. But Germany finished only sixth in the final race, while the Italians had a close finish with Sweden. The Swedes were eventually ruled to have won the race, but Italy's 9 points were enough to take the gold. De Manincor also won a bronze medal in the 1936 European Star Championships, and an Italian title in the same boat (1939).
