The five day Advanced Racing class is a sailing course designed for the experienced racer. The course is taught aboard our identical J80's with no more than four people plus an instructor aboard each boat, so you get lots of personal attention!

The class covers advanced sail trim and boat handling, attacking and defending on the start line, powering and depowering the sail plan, mark roundings, advanced spinnaker skills (including both the symmetric and asymmetric spinnakers), tactics and strategy around the race course, practical application of the racing rules, and elements of efficient team work. The week of training culminates on Friday with competition in the J World Friday Regatta.

  • Roll tacking & gybing
  • Shifting gears
  • Advanced spinnaker techniques
  • Symmetric spinnakers
  • Asymmetric spinnakers
  • Crew coordination

Each day begins with an hour long lecture, then moves onto the water for real world experience.  Each team is comprised of no more than four students, and a coach is aboard at all times.  These courses present an incredible opportunity to sharpen your skills under the watchful eye of a top tier coach.  From helming techniques to onboard communication, from rig tune to the ultimate spinnaker takedown, you will get real world experience to send you home a better, faster sailor!
