Anders Percival Almstedt (November 30, 1888 – October 29, 1937) was a Swedish sailor who competed in the 1920 Summer Olympics.[1] He was a crew member of the Swedish boat Elsie, which won the silver medal in the 40 m2 class.[2] There were only two boats competing in this race, and so it was a foregone conclusion that they would win either the silver or gold.[3]
Almstedt died in his birthplace of Gothenburg in 1937 at the age of 48.[1] The manner of death was suicide.[1]
