Dear Members and Friends The decisions adopted at the IYRU CPOC 1991 midyear meetings have triggered off a lot of discussions in the sailing community. If my interpretation of what happened there is correct, then the Olympic status of all current Olvmpic classesis being questioned. As far as our class is concerned, I think we can face this debate from an excellent position. -Even noq our class is at home in 56 nations and additional countries will join in the near future. By the same token there is hardly any nation where sailing is an Olympic sport and where this Olympic sailing effort doesnt include the 470 class. -We were able to provide extremely high-quality fleets on the occasion of championship events, and international regattas,both with regard to the performance level of competitors as rvell as the number of participating nations. -Our boats are so well-built now that they can be sailed in high-ranking events for quite a number of years (a ten-year-old470 from New Zealand competed in the Barcelona pre Olympic regattal). -The building specification which will be effective from 1993 on will ensure an even fartherreaching standardisationof the 170, as far as its construction is concerned. -Ours is the only boat which can be sailed at an Olympic level by both male and female crews. -The price/performance ratio of the 470 is excelient. -Our boat can be sailed by averageweight competitors (I20-I+0 kg for the entire crele'). One aspectwhich is of particular concern to our classand, of course,our Olympic athletes,and which will probably causea lot of discussion,is the CPOC decision that a proposal will be made under which the two-person dinghy is to be provided to competitors. If however this proposal were to be approved at the November meetings, our competitors will have to live with that decision if they wish to continue competing at Olympic events (and they most certainly do!). We work on the assumDtionthat sails.masts.booms and soinnaker booms can be charteredad lib and/or that competitori can bring their own equipm"nt u.td that the issuesof centerboard, rudder and fittings remain to be discussed. We also read that the IYRU will contact in the near future all eligible builders manufacturing double handed dinghies, in order to obtain the most advantageouscontract for the provision of those boats (the agreementbetween the IOC and the organisersof the Atlanta games does not provide for the provision to competitors, of the two-person dinghy). We offered our assistanceto IYRU in that context becausewe feel that the Olympic status of our class should definitely not depend on whether the IYRU gets the most advantageouscontract from one of our licensedbuilders, or from other sources.We would feel that it would be class-lethalif some other class (which apart from everything else,would be much iess distributed worldwide than ours) were to be given preference merely on account of more favourable contracting conditions. We also conrinue to assume (and we will do everything possible to ensure) that the two-person dinghy - whether it is brought along by competitors or provided to them - to be sailed at the 1996 Olympic events will be the 470, for both male and female crews. Finally, I would like to send you best SeasonsGreetings and best wishes for the New Year from all at the 470 International.

Building Specification On the occasion of the CBC mid-1's21 meeting we were once more faced with controversies over the future construction methodology for the 170.The IYRU Executive Committee however confirmed the version adopted by the Permanent Committee in November, 1989, under which the working party had been tasked with the development of the b u i l d i n g s p e c i f i c a t i o nf o r a s i n g l e s k i n boat. The Executive Committee also felt that the current staff involvment in the 470 class was excessive and instructed that all IYRU staff work on 170 construction should cease forthwith. The CPOC, convened subsequently to that meeting, agreed with, and fully supported, the Executives decision in this resoect. We discussed the new situation resulting from that development, at the Management Committee level; we felt that in implementing the Permanent Committee decision (which our Olympic status is also tied to) we ought to continue our part of the working party
activities even in the absenceof IYRUdesignatedWorking Party members.A letter to that effectwas sent to IYRU on 23 May,1991 and acceptedby IYRU. Experimentalboatswerebuilt meanwhile by Nautivela and Yamaha, accordingto my information, and they are being testedat present. A preliminarycopyof the construction plans including details resulting from decisionsmadeso far is to be forwarded to IYRU in time for the impending Novembermeetings.

Swingfestin operationat Barcelona. normally required, because this year there was no measurement jig, templates for measuring the keel profile and the littings arrived too late, and the darkened tent where we wanted to determine the length of reinforcing members was not ready until just before the first race.All of those items had been requested by measurers in good time before the event, but the organisers (COOB) either failed to provide the items in time or to furnish them at all. Everything else had been well prepared. Sail measuring tables were even provided with diagrams showing how the various dimensions were to be measured. Competitors made ample use of the facilities available to them. We found out h o w e v e r t h a t m e a s r i r i n ge x p e r t i s ew a s not al$'ays sufficiently developed. As a result, the two Spanish measurers Santiago Bastida and Miguel Soldevila (who had prepared themselves very thoroughly for this event) and myself in my capacity as Measurement Consultant, were repeatediy asked to supply i n t e r p r e t a t i o n sc o n c e r n i n g m e a s u r i n g methods. After the end of the races, the original intention was to measure three boats oer c l a s s .i e .a t o t a l o f s i x 4 7 0 ' s .T h i s w o u l d have meant measuring during an entire night! The requirement was therefore reduced to one boat per class, i.e. two 470's onlyr Even under those conditions it rvas impossible to conduct full measurement: we were neverthelessable to measure the most imoortant items such as weight. keel profile fittings,sails, centreboards and rigging Out of a total of l4 boats, two were the object of measurement Drotest.In the caseof one of them. the soinnaker head had been reinforced bv i oiece ofPE foil and the jib foot was not within the ruies. In the other casg one had manifestly added one tolerance to another, with regard to the
shroud piates. Both protests resulted in competitors concerned being disqualified by the jury from the races in question. Howeve! the fact thatwe found those deviations from the rules highlights the shortcoming of the method used, i.e.a small number of boats identified by drawing lots and then measured after the end of each race. Crews would not have had the same problems if a pre regatta measurement had been conducted because the faulty items would have been detected. Apart from that, the possibility of rules
question which we were confronted with, is that of determining the race(s) which the disqualification would apply to; is it only the race after which a boat is "caught in the act'l or all previous races as well? The Barcelona jury decided that boats would only be disqualified from the race after which they were found at fault. With an overall fault rate of l4.3olothe 470 Class was in an excellent oosition c o m p a r e d w i t h o t h e r c l a s s e sb u t a s I pointed out earlier, even those relatively few casescould have been avoided by pre regatta measurement. I n l i g h to i t h o s e f a c t s i.t i s n o t s u r p r i s i n g that the new system found no defenders at Barcelona,the general consensusbeing that one hoped for the adoption of the earlier system for the forthcoming Olympic events. Measurement Consultants Dresent at B a r c e l o n af e l t t h a t t h e t o t a l t i m e r e q u i r e d for measurement work could be substantially reduced as compared with the last olympic events if one were to concentrate on the really essential items which affect the speed of a boat, and on detecting intentional rule violations. Another aspectwhich was supposed to be demonstrated at Barcelona by the IIRU, was the pendulum test.As a matter offact, such a test was conducted, - but 'in unfortunately it took place privatel Another unfortunate fact was that the test was not applied to several huil shells, so as to verify the currentiy prescribed moment of inertia of 128.10 ksm. It
Hull mea surement templates. being mis-understood in the absence of binding interpretations makes it perfectly conceivable that National Authorities interpret a rule "at homei to the best of their knowledge, that may not coincide with the official interpretation of which they may be unaware. It would certainly be unfair to tell such national federations - after a race! - that their boats do not comply with our rules and had to be disoualified. Another
would certainly have been most important and helpful to participating nations if one could have shown them how the pendulum test is to be conductednext year in Barcelona(and w h i c h m e t h o d s a r e t o b e u s e d ) .a n d which aspectsnations must pay attention to, when carrying out their own oreliminarv check at home.

The Hyde Sails 470 Rig of the 470 Mainsail TheDevelopment
f
U fr l
-
F
11'\ver the past fifteen years 47Omainsail development \-7hur been along three main routes. The Needlespar/Z Spar rig developed and used by Dave Ullman in the seventiei, the Epsilon rig developed by SteveBenjamin for Ullman Sails in the early eighties and the Needlespar rig developed by David Barnes at the same time. To put thesethree rigs in context we should order them in terms of flexibiliry and by flexibility we mean their ability to cope with changing conditions independendy of the sailors.
The Epsilon Rig The most inflexible is the Epsilon rig, which is a fairly flat mainsail with only a small amount of luff round set on a straight mast. It represents,when set up correctly, the theoretical best foil shape, low drag and maximum projection, for the boat - ideal in medium conditions and flat water. The problem is that this shape has a nanow performance groove - as soon as the wind goesuP or down the settings must be changed to maintain the foil shape and the balance of the boat. This is particularlY awkward in the '170 rvhere the c l a s sr u l e sp r o h i b i t c h a n g i n gt h e mast rake or the spreadersduring the race. Horv many times have ).ou come out of the start line and thought - we're on the wrong setting! These adjustments are critical becausethe mast cannot be allorvedto bend to respond to a changing conditions function of the lack of luff round. Consequently you have the rnyriad of different settings for rake,spreader and rig tension of the straight rig. tt is r-rndoubledly fast, particularly on flat water in steady conditions, but the lack of flexibility rteans that you are continually struggling to keep the boat at its optimum. In rvaves or gusty conditions it does not respond to the changeslvithout 'us-er-inter-vention'and distracts the crer'vfrom all the other e s p e c l so I t h e r a c e .
The Barnes Rig By complete contrast, and interestingly enough developed at tire same time, is the Barnes rig. This uses a fuli mainsail, particularly in the top, cut with a lot of luff round and set on i Needlespar with pre-bend to match lt is oniy adjusted by the rig tension, being let back on the halyard when the wind increised. lt rvas the ultimate in automatic rigs, and marked the distinct approach of David Barnes to 470 sailing The Darticular abilitv that won him three world championships ir.rfo.,r years *as the abiliry to sail consistently well in big fleets' The rnore automatically the rig can cope with changing conditions the better you are able to do this. Unfortunately Barnes probably carried the concept too far, although quick
in a breeze he always struggled in the light to medium airs. In 1984, despite winning the World Championships. he was beaten out of the New Zealand Olympic slot because trials were held in smaller fleets. Straight-line boat speed became the determining factor and Barnes did not have enough.
The Needlespar/ Z-Spar Rig In between these two rig- concepts is the Needlespar/Z-
Spar rig used by David Ullman to win three world championshipsin the seventies, and stiil successfultoday in the hands of sailors like \4blfgang Hunger.It usesa fuller mainsail with more luff round than the Epsilonrig, but not as much as the Barnesrnainsail.So it is less c r i t r c at lh a nt h cE p s i l o ni n i t ss e t up, but still requiresadjustment of the rake and spreader positions.
li
The fundamental issue in these rigs is really the luff round cut into the sail. This determines the amount you can allow the mast to bend to llatten the sail for different conditions. The downside of this is that if you go too far, the rig once again becomes inflexibie to changing conditions. The sail cannotbe llattened enough in Iight airs rvithout changir-rgspreader angles, mainiy becauseyou cannot induce prebend at deck level in the 470 because of the class rules. The altemative is an over-full sail that s c rc r e l l c o m p r o t n i s e sp e r f o r mance in the lorver r,vind speeds.
The Simple Rig When rve started development in 1989,Hyde already made a successfulversion of the Epsilon rig that was being used by several UK sailors. But experiences in the 1988 season had convinced us that the 470 required as simple a rig as possible, - lve wanted to emulate the philosophy that David Barnes had used so successfully But, ^ltho.rgh Hyde had obtained the European patterns tbr these sails they seemed too extreme.We needed sornethingbetween the Barnes rig and the Needlespar Ullman rig. We used the Ullman concept as a stirrtirlgpoint, and made initial changes that pushed it in the direction of the Barnes sail - increising the luff curve and the fullness, via the broad seams,in the upper third. The mast we selectedr'vasthe Super Spar M7, and we set the sails on this mast rvith a little more pie-bend than the Needlespar Ullman rig. Getting these .hutrg"t to match the mast took a long time. The extra fullness in the top had to be just right, so that the sail bladed out in the stronger breezes and still had the necessary power at the lower end of the rvind range. But by the early part of 1990 we were gettlng results; 3rd at Palamos,7th at Hyeres and winning Cannes Ski Yachting.

The kicker, cunningham and outhaul are a1l used in conjunction r.vith the chocks to provide the sail shapes that we see illustrated. For some time we thought that we could get away rvithor-rtraking at all, but at this years European Championships the conditions convinced us that we needed greater depowering faciliry So that the boat had a wide enough groove to sail easily through a choppy sea,without itbecoming overpressed every time you bear away for a wave.
Luff Starvation To make all this work we were looking for a cloth that rvas reasonably"square'lie; a small differencebetween the stretch along the threadline and the stretch at fortl' five degrees to it - along the bias. If there is too big a difference between the stretch in the t"vo directions then as the sail is loaded up the leech, by pulling tl.revang on, it will round r-rp.This is because, although tl.resail can cope with the load along the threadline, up the leech as it progressesmore on the bias into the sail, the cloth will stretch morq creating a bag in the sail that causes tl-ris to happen. Howeveq if y'ou make it from a cloth that is too strong in the bias direction, then appll.ing the vang r.villjust bend the mast until the sail is completell.flat.

We were able to solve this problem by transferring the sail design to our computer program. This enabled us to change the panel layout, rvhilst rnaintaining the basic shape. The current design uses ten panels for an exceptionall). fair sail. The reason the sail is so successful,and so manl'sailors are moving to it - particr-rlarly those ne\ . to the class, is that the rig is simple and non-critical to use.Get the settings right and it will work in a wide range of windspeed before you have to make any major changes.

Repair and Maintenanceof DinghyFoils
U Ir I

F
many sailors finding the winter competition \f,/irtt V Y just too much to resist, dinghies are now being permanendy kept in the sailing club compound or readyto-go in the garage.The demands of maintenance requirements however have not changed and some time has inwitably to be devoted to control systems and repairs. Probablythe single most common componentsrequiring attention - although frequently overlooked- are foils. We all know how important they are to boatspeedyet how often do racingsailorsgive their foils a carefulinspection?And by this I mean checkingfor symmetry and fit aswell as obvious damageand abrasion. The cost of a new set of foils is a major expense- as much as a new mast - but they are much more prone to danger Constantmonitoringof their conditionis vital in orderto keep the boat in top un; and minimize racing costs. Obviously daggerboardsand rudders areeasyto check since they are readily accessible.Centerboardswhich are hidden within the casingnot only receivethe usual knocks and bendingforces,but theyalsorub on the sidesof the casewhen beingloweredor raised.Regularinspectionof the centerboard helps maintain windward performance and can avoid the catastropheof breakage. Attention must alsobe given the the operationof the board itself and the efficiencyof the friction brakesystem.This meanswithdrawingthe board and gaining accessto the interior ofthe casethrough the centerboardslot.
Centerboard Case Maintenance Turn the boat on its sidq and withdraw the board from its case. Check the condition of the bolt hole and interior of the case and note any gougeson the interior where the coating has been penetrated. Particularly prone to uear is the interior surface where the friction brake rubs on each side. Small stones or sand can become caught here and gouge through any previous
fig 1 Gentreboard damage
protectivecoating.This canbe repairedand fairedsimply with epoxy and filler. I recommendthickening the epoxy slightly with colloidal silica to give a harderwearingsurfaceand one which will fill small cavitieswithout running out. The epoxycanbe appliedvia a long,smooth,straight-sided stick from eitherthe top or bottom of the casewith a 'squeegee' action.Itis worth removingthe slotgasketbeforehandto gain better accessand avoid the possibility ofany epoxy sticking to it. After the epoxyhasbeenleft for at least24 hours to harden it can be sandedwith I00 grit paper - again a piece of flat ply can be usedto which the sandpapercan be wrapped and stapled.Any staplesshould be hammered flat below the sanding surface. Now look at the bolt hole in the casefor signsof wear and water penetration.It is alwaysa good idea to file out the hole slightly and allow any moisturepresentto escape.If the wood is darkenedaround the hole the wood hasbeenwet for some time.Apply a hot air gun to dry it out. When dry coatthe hole with epoxy using a pipe cleanerto coat it neatly around the inside of the hole.Whilst wet removeany excessfrom inside the case. After allowing to harden, smooth using a round file and sandpaper,then check the bolt for fit.
Centerboard Maintenance Fig. I showsa variety of damagethat can occur to a wooden dinghy centerboard. Split Handle Repair This can occur through a glue split in the laminationsor through poor handle design (fig.2a and 2b). When excessupwardsforce is applied the wood is prone to split alongthe direction of the grain.The bestway ro make a permanentrepairis to usea combinationof epoxyadhesive and screws(Fig. 3a. 3b).

In light of questions raised with regard to measurement items, and my own experience when carrying out measurement work in recent months, I was repeatedly confronted with uncertainties and/or ignorance of specific items in the currently valid measurement rules, some of which shall be addressed below.
7. The following constructionmethods may be used for the king plank (aswas alreadypointed out in TechnicalBulletin 6 in 1987):
1. Non-slip materialis only allowedin thegunwalearea(Rule 7.5),i.eonly up to a maximum of 30mm from the outsidg plus on the cockpit floor (Building Schedule6a). H
MAX 30mm.
2. Mast partnersfrequently are wider than the mast and/or not absolutelysymmetrical.Suchsituationsmay be remedied by one of the following methods: (a) filling intersticeswith GRP(Building Schedule6), (b) filling them with another optional material under Rule I /_.),
(c) widening the mastwith the samematerialthe mastis made of,within the limits allowedformaximum mastwidth (75 mm under Rule ll.3). 3. Materialsto be usedin the constructionof 470sarespecified in Building Schedule(BS)6. Tapgplasticsheetingetc.asfrequentlyfound undemeath fittings, either as decorativeelementsor for protection, are thereforenot permitted. The use of tapeto reducethe size of the tiller port in the transomis not permitted either GRPis the only materialwhich may be used for that purpose 4. According to BS 2 the opening(s)in the forward cockpit bulkhead must be closedwatertight.The use of tape is not sufficient to achievethis. Hatchesshall be screweddown tight and sealedwith rubber gasketsor silicon. The distancebenveen screwsdependson the flexibility of the hatch.Spacingscrews at a distanceof 150mm may be assumedto be reasonablefor most of the constructions. 5. The diagrampertaining to Building Schedule6 (a) indicates the areaof the cockpit floor reinforcement;this refersto the entire area. 1OOMAX
6. When reinforcing members cross each other, only one member will be measuredwithin the intersection area.

470 Times Recently I was reflecting about the structure and growth of our class and iooking back on earlier administration, p a s t p r e s i d e n t s , s e c r e t a r i e se t c , t h e people who in general started the class off and built the structure that we know todayr Our class designer Andre Cornu, what a brain child Andre had when he designed the boat. I was given to understand that the 470 was originally designed as a family beach boat and not a thoroughbred racer,if this was the case how did it happen that the 470 became so strong. The growth of the class really was generatedby the French Association with all the original administration and support being handled in France,in the smaller towns until the classbecame international and then it moved to Paris rvith a full time office and secretariar.As finances changed it became clear that the association had to be run on a segregated team basis and at present this is rvhat actualll,happens with all the members giving their time to the class. Probably in the future we will be fuily
manned as a professional organisation w i t h [ u l l t i m e a d m i n i s r r a r i o ns ] s r e m . especially since general sailing is going in this direction.
