The Vanguard Optimist has been proven safe through
years of tough use in instructional programs around the
world. The flat, square hull and manageable rig are
stable in all wind and sea conditions. Each boat carries
three floatation bags, guaranteeing a buoyant,
self-righting boat.
The same Optimist Dinghy that introduced thousands of
kids to sailing each year provides a world of sailing
opportunities as sailors advance in racing skill. With
over 150,000 Optimist Dinghies actively racing in 85
nations, the Optimist is one of the largest classes in
the world. Young sailors can race at the club, regional,
national and world levels as their skills develop.
