Jonas Warrer (born 22 March 1979) is a Danish sailor in the 49er class who sails with Martin Kirketerp.[1] At the 2008 Summer Olympics, they stood to win the gold medal before the final round, but their mast broke shortly before start.[2] The Croatian team lent the Danes their boat, and the Danes went on to finish seventh in the round, which would win them the gold medal.[3]
