O'pen Bic
The
fast, planing hull of the O’pen Bic gives the
dynamic sailing experience of a true dinghy that heels. Being at the
helm of this powerful machine gives you the same level of excitement
normally experienced on a boat for adults. Based on the 60-foot
Open design, including a totally open self draining stern, even
capsizing is fun! Young sailors are fully independent on the water and
will be proud to sail such a modern-looking and elegant boat; one that
sails and looks like the boat of today’s champions.

Optimist
Pram
This little pram-bowed racing dinghy, affectionately
known as an "Opti", is arguably on of the best starter boats
of world-class sailors (70% of medalist skippers in the Athens Olympics
got their starts in Optimists). She's so beamy, buoyant (three buoyancy
units per hull are required in Class design rules) and easily handled,
it's extremely difficult to capsize her. The Optimist is specifically
designed to be a junior training and racing boat and enjoys active fleets
in over 100 nations.

Laser
Every
Laser in the world is identical. Strict one-design class rules ensure
this remains true, making it the sailor that wins the race,
not the boat. The Laser is a challenging boat that rewards athleticism,
subtle steering and trimming techniques, as well as tactical excellence.
It is a singlehanded Olympic class boat, also sailed at club, national
and international levels.
Laser sailing is an investment
in skills that will last a lifetime; skills that apply to any boat.
Laser sailors have access to a community of sailors from around the
world who love to race.
