This is not correct. There were also an australien team. So there were 2 teams. And this is not the controversal aspect. Controversal is, that both, Hoesch and Tyler never in their live have been at American Samoa and have no personal or biological links to these islands. They both had to witch there starting nationality. Second is, that Hoesch, who already had ended his career, had probably taken away a possible starting spot of his former teammate Philipp Autenrieth. Both are also members of the same sailing club. So they were seen as "olympic tourists" by sportspersons who are more ambitious. -- Marcus Cyron (talk) 03:23, 18 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
