The Club Racer includes:
· McLaughlin "WORLD CHAMPION" HULL -
The Club Racer comes with a time-tested hull that has won the US Nationals
and the WORLDS. It's fast out of the box and ready to accept advanced racing
equipment as your sailor's skills grow. The Club Racer has a high resale
value and appeals to the largest number of club members after your sailor
moves on. That's why there are more McLaughlin Club Racers sold in the US
than any other Optimist!
· Optiparts UPGRADED Club Spars (EX1051S) -
This spar set was specially designed to eliminate loose parts and complexity
of rigging. It is the ideal for beginner sailors. The spars (mast, boom and
sprit) are made of anodized 6000 series aluminum. The cleats are clam cleats
for greater holding power while not cutting control lines, 2:1 sprit
adjustment with Harken ball bearing block is standard and the end fittings
are the strongest and most durable on the market.
· Optiparts "Upgraded" (Class legal)
Club Sail (EX1059) - We could offer a cheap Club Sail to save some
money, but we added long lasting cloth, a vision window, class insignia and
class royalty fees button (so you won't have to!). This is the most durable
sail available, easy to adjust, but with a fast shape. The set includes:
Sail ties, battens and a spar bag large enough to store and protect the
spars with the sail still attached.
· Optiparts "New Rule" Blades (EX11155T)
- These blades are built of clear epoxy and fiberglass over foam to the
latest class specifications. They are the same design as those required at
the World Championships. Included is a maintenance free aluminum tiller and
extension. (They float for safety).

completely rigged with floating, high-vis bowline & bow loop; bailer
& lanyard; ball bearing Harken kit including "Carbo Ratchet"
