In the open Laser Radial, after a difficult and very competitive regatta, Laser world champion Xu took China's fourth gold medal in an open class, winning by two points. Koh Seng Leong from Singapore and Rajesh Choudhary from India were on equal points at the conclusion of sailing on 12 December, but Koh won on countback. Koh won the final race, giving him more firsts overall than Choudhary and allowing him to jump from fourth overall to second place, taking the silver. Choudhary won his second consecutive bronze medal in this class, having won bronze at the Asian Games Busan 2002.

In the men's Laser standard class Singapore’s Maximilian Soh stormed home with the gold medal, winning by nine points. The battle for silver was very close between Japan’s Yoichi Iijima and Hokon Kim, Korea who covered each other for the whole race. Iijima placed third in the final race to win the silver medal. Defending Asian Games gold medallist Kim finished fifth to take the bronze and was visibly frustrated with his performance. Iijima, however was a very pleased sailor, taking his country’s 200 sailing medal.

In the Laser 4.7 class, Cheng Xinru Colin won Singapore's second gold medal of the day. Cheng's consistent sailing throughout the regatta paid off with all his races, bar two, concluding with top three finishes. He was well clear of the rest of the fleet, taking the gold medal with a 10-point margin.
