Full Day 420's and Lasers.

420 sailboats are two-person dinghies consisting of one skipper and one crew. The classes are arranged into groups ranging from Learn to Sail through more advanced Racers. Learn to Sail will cover basic sailing and boat handling with the intention to complete some simple races by the end. This will build on any skills and prepare students to advance further into the racing program.

Learn to Sail 420's is a full-day class for slightly older (10yrs+) or bigger kids than Opti Learn to Sail, who are generally new to sailing or racing. This class uses CSYC owned 420 sailboats without spinnakers.

In this class, basic sailing skills once learned are integrated into a racing environment, with sailors learning techniques such as timed starts, upwind/downwind sailing, sailboat handling, jib and main sail trim, mark rounding's, and some racing tactics.

Sailors are encouraged to participate in the DRYA Junior Regattas held through the season.

420 Racing is a full-day class for our doublehanded 420 sailors. Generally, sailors in 420 Racing have completed several seasons in Opti R/W/B Racing or have some past experience sailing.
