420 Racing |
420 racing is designed to be an extension of the High School Racing Team. The class is open to current high school racers, and sailors from Opti Racing or Sailing Skills who want to do sailboat racing as a competitive sport. The goal of the class is to prepare sailors to compete at events across Minnesota. There will be several opportunities to compete throughout the summer. The focus will be on learning quickly and at a high level, and sailors are encouraged to take multiple sessions throughout the summer.
