THe Fd is the only true dinghy that is standing the test of time.As people will know the 470 is going and there is real lobbying for the FD and heaps of support.It will happen.

 This boat as a very wide abilty to take all weights and ages.Nothing beats it and I have a Fd and a B14 and 18ft skiff and I always go back to the Fd as it is just pure sailing using every bit of abilty you have not just raw grunt

"Flying Dutchmans the only real racing Dinghy.Prove me wrong" - to be honest I think it's up to you to prove yourself correct...  Why is it the only real dinghy racing?  I didn't realise that such an overwhelming percentage of the racing world was wasting it's time.

 Those kinds of photos always make me feel rather nervous. I've got an ambition never to be caught out in a big sea in a small boat again. Last time it happened we were half way from the Canaries to the Cape Verdes, no RNLI round there...
