Club 420
The Fleet
The club has a fleet of twelve Club 420s purchased from Vanguard in 2007. Six of them are rigged for spinnaker and trapeze.
The Boat
The Club 420 is a superb boat for junior sailing programs, with over 3,000 boats sailed in youth programs all over the United States and Canada. These are also the boats used by our collegiate sailing team to compete at a local and national level. At 420cm in length they are the smaller version of the Olympic class boat the 470. They move well, even in lighter air, and on a good day will plane out and scream across the lake. These boats are a ton of fun in a race of just a day sail. Definitely make a point of getting your 420 rating, or finding someone with theirs who you can go out with.
Contact volunteer fleet captain Jeremy McMahon and at 420s@hoofersailing.org regarding the 420 fleet.
