The Club Junior is a light, tough, agile performer that is availible with or without a spinnaker package. Especially popular on lakes and rivers, the Club Junior tacks and accelerates quickly, making the best use of restricted sailing areas. The Club Junior is both self-rescuing and safe. With a tough non-tapered mast, external halyards, and a simple layout, the Club Junior is suitable for optimist sailors and All-americans alike. There are over 800 boats in use in club programs today, and more than 100 active collegiate fleets. The Club Junior is a fantastic choice for clubs, high-schools, or colleges looking to introduce young sailors to double-handed sailing. It is a boat that can teach beginners how to sail, or teach sailors how to become All-americans.
