BEGINNER OPTIMIST

Beginner Optimist

Beginner Optimist
An introductory class to sailing on the ubiquitous “Opti” sailboat, new sailors will learn the basics of rigging a boat, basic boat handling, sailing fundamentals, seamanship (knots, weather, etc.), sportsmanship, and water safety. Each day the sailors will leave with a new set of skills as they take steps to learn how to become a successful sailor on and off the water. Most days, sailors will be paired with another classmate on the water as they learn new skills like steering, trimming the sails, and becoming comfortable around the water.
