Finn

The Finn was designed in 1949 to be the 'monotype' dinghy at the 1952 Olympic games. It has remained an Olympic class ever since and is now the longest standing of any Olympic dinghy class. It currently fills the slot for the Heavyweight Dinghy.

The Finn has remained at the forefront of International and Olympic dinghy sailing for the past six decades. It has done so because it offers the opportunity for sailors to push themselves to their limits; because it offers technical education and development for sailors; and because of the love that thousands of sailors all over the world have for sailing a great boat. And this is why it should hopefully remain at the forefront for the foreseeable future.
