He competed in one-person dinghy at the 1964 and 1968 Olympics and 1963, 1966 and 1967 world championships and won on all occasions except in 1968. He then changed to two-person and three person keelboat events and won a bronze medal at the 1972 Olympics, placing sixth-eighth in 1976 and 1984; he missed the 1980 Moscow Games due to their boycott by West Germany.[1]
