part of the Junior Olympic Festival program (events happen around the country). There were four racing circles: two for Optis, one for Lasers (4.7 and Radial) and my circle for Club 420s. I was told that the Club 420 is considered the "elite" class. Now, how did THAT happen???



I see a possible convergence here :

for mono's

opti => laser (4.7/radial) => 420

for cats

opti => F12 => nacra 500


The nacra and 420 share the same make-up of ideal crew weight. I intend to have the F12 do the same with respect to the laser (4.7/radial). And it makes sense to have both tracks make use of the opti for kids in the range 6-12.

The follow up for both mono's and cat to this junoir track will be obvious.

Do you think we butt-in into the junior programs this way ?

Anybody know what the 420's go for ?
