Approximate drawing

Hover a measurement to read its value

The Vanguard C420, commonly referred to as the Club 420, is the definitive doublehanded racing dinghy for scholastic and collegiate programs across North America. Originally adapted from the International 420 design, Vanguard Sailboats—which later merged into LaserPerformance—reengineered the vessel to withstand the rigors of club programs and heavyuse racing circuits. Unlike its more fragile International counterpart, the C420 features a reinforced hull and a simplified rig, prioritizing durability and strict onedesign uniformity over ultimate weight reduction. This philosophy has established the C420 as the primary platform for the Club 420 Association, facilitating a competitive environment where tactical skill and boat handling take precedence over equipment spending.
