Great winter project boat. High performance 17 foot racing boat. This class is raced in the olympics. Carries a main, jib and spinnaker for the more advanced sailor. Boat has been in a barn for 20 years, all the lines and mast wires missing. Also needs a tiller. Comes with 5 sails, so there are several spares. All sails in useable condition. Trailer in great shape, bearing buddies and LED lights. No title.
Boat history is impressive, sailed in the world championships in 1975. Also was in the olympic trials in 76.
470 makes a nice day sailor and will carry 2-3 comfortably. But also will handle a trapeze and planes like a high performance boat. Check out some you tube videos for some exciting sailing action.
Bought for a friend but he changed his mind. Thought I would restore it and keep but my hobie is still my favorite.
If I can keep the trailer you can have it for 200.
