Who should take this course?
Taking the next step from Prams, the O'Pen skiff is where we finalize the transition from sailing with a friend to confident single handing. While a wet and sometimes capsize prone boat, the O'Pen Skiff rights from a capsize dry and is a huge skill boost to growing sailors. Capsizing, a normal part of larger boats, is normalized and practiced frequently. Kids quickly grow confident and enjoy the challenge. This boat provides a great step to, or break from, racing - while growing skills for all future sailors.
