The Optimist is the most popular racing sailboat for juniors

The Optimist is the most popular type of racing sailboat for juniors up to 15yrs of age (or approximately 100lbs/45kg). The LaserPerformance Optimist has been designed to be safe, durable and competitive. The skills the Optimist fosters can be directly translated into other classes later on.

  • Each boat carries three floatation bags, insuring a buoyant, self-righting boat.
  • LaserPerformance uses the patented Plexus bonding agent to bond the hull and deck which provides strength and a watertight seal.
  • Finally, we bond the entire Optimist (hull, bulkhead, rails, and thwart) together while they are in the mold. This ensures that our boat is as stiff, symmetric and smooth as possible.
  • LENGTH 7’ 7”
  • BEAM 3’ 7”
  • HULL WEIGHT 77 sq’
  • TRANSPORT Cartoppable (fits inside the back of a suburban/tahoe sized vehicle)
