The selection of events and equipment is always a challenging time for all. The International 470 Class Association is focused on ensuring that in this first stage of World Sailing deciding the “events” for the 2024 Olympic Sailing Competition that both a two-person dinghy men and a two-person dinghy women event are retained.

The next step, which will be decided by World Sailing in November 2018, will be to secure the 470 Class as the selected "equipment".

The International 470 Class Association will keep you informed of developments, and if you have any questions about the review process please email office@470.org
