    Sailors Jason Saunders and Gemma Jones gear up for World Cup regatta this week

    The Olympic Games will have to take a backseat in the minds of sailors Jason Saunders and Gemma Jones as they gear up for the latest World Cup regatta this week


    The pair will compete in the Nacra 17 World Cup Series finals in Marsielle , coming off a seventh placing at the European championships recently.

    Saunders says while next year's games is the focus, they need to have fun in the moment as well.

    He says everything is building towards Tokyo, but they want to make sure they're enjoying themselves and are confident.

    The regatta starts tonight.
