2005 Asia 470 Championships

by Darren Dunkley-Smith on 30 Apr 2005 There is no doubt that China is one of the most exciting destinations in the World today.

International 470 has been the natural choice of Asian Sailing for many years.

The 2005 Asian 470 Championships were held in ShiShi with good racing and tight competition with China showing its dominance

The regatta was a great start to an exciting project for Asia and Int 470. It is hoped
that the Asian 470 Powerhouses of Japan and Korea will join in next year along with 470
members like the Philippines, Malaysia and Myanmar, India and Pakistan.

Regional Championships are the ideal breeding ground for tomorrow’s Champions and give emerging Nations a stepping-stone to World Championships.

Thanks goes to the Chinese Yachting Association for their assistance in the organisation.

See you all again in Rizhao 2006 for the Worlds.

Alreasdy this year 50 new 470's have been supplied to Malaysia and another 35 new 470’s are about to be delivered to China and there is a huge build up of excitement towards the 2008 Olympic Regatta in Qingdao and the 2006 470 Worlds in Rizhao.
