When a sailor thinks of 470 they automaticly think of 4, well actually, 5 words. High performance, fast, olympic, dinghy. It's an excellent high performance boat with a much used trapeze and a spinnaker. It's basically a big 420. You definetely need to be "fit" to sail this boat, or else you'll be huffing and puffing in mere minutes. The 470 is one of the most popular international dingys around (everyone knows the name, and if you don't, you do now). The 470 is sailed worldwide and if you think your really good you can go to the Olympics and get your @$$ kicked by Europeans and Aussies. Sounds like fun!
