In early art, the Sirens were represented as birds with the heads, and sometimes the chests, of women.
However, later in history Sirens were sometimes also depicted as beautiful women (whose bodies, not only their voices, are seductive), or even as mermaids (half woman, half fish).
Odysseus escaped the Sirens by having all his sailors plug their ears with beeswax and tie him to the mast.

Conditions for the finals were light and shifty and despite the final day being her worst day of the Championship, Blanck had already done enough to maintain a 12 point lead, illustrating the importance of a good start throughout a Championship.
Sarah Blanck of Australia is the key example, she has been steady and consistent in her starting, which has enabled her to break out from the pack in light and patchy winds and dominate the one-way track in Hamilton harbour.
Discarding nothing worse than a fifth she has extended her lead to fifteen points over Siren Sundby of Norway going into the final series, where the fleet are split into gold and silver for the last four races.

At 21, she is brimming with youthful exhuberance, which some fear could count against her when it comes to the pressure cooker that is Olympic racing.
Sundby is well aware of what is required at the Olympics, having competed as a 17-year-old in Sydney, by her own assessment simply making up the numbers with her 19th place.
She has learned a lot since then and is the form racer in the Europe class - for single dinghy racing - with seven successive wins which have sent her to the top of the world rankings.
