Our Fleet
-
Optimist
We currently have a fleet of Optimists, an 8′ single handed junior boat designed for introductory sailing and racing. The Opti has become the largest junior one-design class in the world, with around 180,000 Optis sailed in almost every country on earth. Go Opti Go!
-
Cape Cod Frosties
Our fleet of Cape Cod Frosties, a 6’4″ single handed boat originally designed for adult frostbiting (sailing in crazy cold winter when there’s lots of wind) is used in our summer junior program for our smallest sailors, as they are easy to learn to sail.
-
Turbo 420s
We are really proud of our new fleet of Turbo 420s, the first new fleet of boats that SailMaine has ever purchased. 420’s are a sturdy, high performance, 14′ double-handed racing dinghy sailed by our high school and summer juniors. Wow fun!
-
J/22s
SailMaine is also very proud of our twelve J/22s, a 22′ keelboat (means it can’t or shouldn’t tip over), designed for 4 sailors but capable of being sailed by 2 to 5. They are perfect for both our “learn to sail” and “learn to race” activities for advanced junior sailors and adults.
