Keerati Bualong is a Thai sailor. In 2012, he became the first Thai to qualify for the Olympics in the men's one person dinghy, the same class of boat His Majesty The King of Thailand once sailed. He competed at the 2012 Summer Olympics in the Men's Laser class.

While harsh conditions proved overwhelming for the Thai sailor who did not do as well as expected, Keerati, 20, has already caught the attention of the international sailing community and is expected to achieve great things over the next ten years of his sailing career. A three-year plan to ensure his qualification and better results at the 2016 Olympics in Brazil is now coming together, the hunt for corporate sponsors to supplement funding by the Sports Authority of Thailand and the Yacht Racing Association of Thailand underway.

Keerati was the first Asian to win the Laser Radial Youth Worlds and has many medals to his name.
