About This Activity
*Mornings in 2026* Opti Race Team is the next step for Opti Learn to Race sailors ages 8 – 15 with prior racing experience. Sailors in this course should expect a competitive environment and a rigorous curriculum to improve their skills. This is the first class of the LMSS Race Team and is the best platform to grow young sailors. Students will continually work on their boat speed upwind and downwind, starting practice, mark roundings and boat handling, understanding of the rules, and rigging techniques specific to racing Optis. Sailors will practice M-F mornings. Sailors will participate in local TCYS regattas on Fridays. Sailors are expected to be members of Minnetonka Yacht Club and participate in weekly racing through the club. Sailors are also required to participate in local events throughout the duration of the session, and expected to participate in regional events. During TCYS events and other LMSS-supported regattas, there will be no practice at LMSS LMSS Summer Opti Charter fee: $150/session
