2026 World Championship — Silver
Tim Mourniac (born 14 April 1998) is a French Olympian who helmed the Nacra 17 at the Paris 2024 Games, finishing fifth.
For the new Olympic cycle he joined forces with Aloise Retornaz, and the pair enjoyed a breakthrough 2026, wearing the leader's yellow jersey for four straight days before taking silver at the World Championship in Quiberon.
Mourniac and Retornaz aim squarely at gold for Los Angeles 2028.
Aloise Retornaz is a seasoned 470 sailor who switched to the Nacra 17 at the start of 2025 after the 470 was dropped from the Olympic program.
Teaming with helm Tim Mourniac, she adapted to the foiling catamaran fast: the new French pair led the 2026 World Championship for much of the week before clinching silver, having earlier taken European bronze in 2025.
Retornaz and Mourniac are firm gold contenders for LA 2028.
