Hans Boudewijn Binkhorst (17 September 1942 – 16 July 2021) was a Dutch sailor who represented his country at the 1968 Summer Olympics in Acapulco.
1980: Several countries did boycott the 1980 Summer Olympics, others like France did not go since they found the competition devalued.
As result only half of the expected fleet was present during the Olympic regattas.
This was the result of a conflict between Binkhorst (and a German boatbuilder) and the ISCYRA about the creation of an unsinkable Star.
One outcome was that the team of Binkhorst and Willem van Walt Meijer did not start at the Worlds and missed an opportunity to qualify for the Olympics.
