S1D North Sails Optimist Speed Clinic
Sponsored by North Sails One Design, on 19-20 March 2022, Sail1Design will team up with North Sails to hold an Optimist Clinic focused on one thing: going really fast. Rather than tactics, starting, etc., this clinic will hone in on

TUNING 101: Boat Setup and preparation, including rig setup, sail tuning, and overall boat prep. Dryland tuning/rigging advice from top coaches and top former Optimist Stars!!
CHOICES in GEAR: There are a ton of options out there for hulls, foils, spars, sails, ropes, and more. We will give a brief overview of what's out there, and offer advice on how to approach it all
SAIL TRIM: This is where the rubber meets the road. Using drone video, photos, and more, we will go out on the water and look at sail trim upwind and downwind, tuning on the fly, and how to put it all together. The goal here is twofold:
to learn how to go as fast as possible
to begin to learn why/how to tune your boat and trim your sails without someone else telling you how.

BONUS!! Sail1Design is also hosting a New England College Team Race Regatta at the same venue at the same time! Opti clinic attendees will get a chance to de-brief with some of the nations top college sailors, many of them former Optimist Stars, and maybe watch a few team races up close as well!!

For more information, please contact Sail1Design: tom.sitzmann@northsails.com   or 443-220-2089
