With more than a quarter-million of these small, single-masted rigs in 70 countries, the Optimist is the racing boat for children. In fact, at the 1996 Olympics, every Gold Medal winner learned how to sail in an Optimist. Divided into six sections, this book addresses the speed skills young sailors need to get to the front of the fleet, as well as how to achieve the necessary physical and mental fitness. In addition, special sections offer advice for parents and coaches, while appendices provide sheets to help analyze goals and pinpoint strengths and weaknesses.
