Mates

Age: 9-10 year old
Difficulty Level: Intermediate

Mates build on the skills they learned in Seamen. They gain confidence through time on the water.

Sailors will be required early in the program to sail independently in Optimists. They learn to land at a mooring, basic racing skills and advanced knots. In addition, they increase their knowledge of navigation and basic weather patterns.
