Sailing career

When Amir competed in the Olympics he was 6-2.5 (190 cm) tall, and weighed 207 lbs (94 kg).[1]

Amir competed for Israel at the 1984 Summer Olympics with Yoel Sela, at the age of 22, in Los Angeles, California, in Sailing - Mixed Two Person Heavyweight Dinghy, and came in 8th.[1]

Amir competed for Israel at the 1988 Summer Olympics with Yoel Sela, at the age of 26, in Seoul, Korea, in Sailing - Mixed Two Person Heavyweight Dinghy, and came in 4th.[1] They came very close to winning the first Olympic medal in Israeli history, missing one by 11.30 points.[2] Their second race fell on Yom Kippur, and Israeli officials forbade them from competing that day, so they had missed that race.[2] Had they been able to compete in the second race, they would have certainly medaled.[2][5][6]

In 1990, Amir and Sela came in 5th in the World Championships.[7] In 1991, they won the Italian Open and came in second in the France Open.[2]

At the 1992 Summer Olympics, Amir carried the Israeli flag at opening ceremony. He competed with Yoel Sela, at the age of 30, in Sailing - Mixed Two Person Heavyweight Dinghy, and came in 20th. [8]
