Sailing in the Laser
Camp for youth from 14 years (advanced)
Autumn week
Internal or external
1 person per boat - One-man sword boat for the more experienced sailor. The Laser is one of the most popular one-man boats in the world. This fast and cool boat is easy to rig and when things get exciting we adjust the sail accordingly! For the Laser you must be in possession of a CWO 2 dinghy or CWO 3 two-man youth sailing course.
The Laser is a sailing boat that belongs to a very popular sailing class. A Laser is a medium sized dinghy with a weight of about 60 kilograms. A Laser is a one-man boat with which many international sailing competitions are held. There are a number of different types of Laser. They differ from each other by the type of rigging. The hull is identical for all these types. Of course we have all types in house! However, for the youth we will mainly use the 4.7 rigs.
The 4.7 has the least sail area. The sail measures 4.7 m².
The Radial has a sail of 5.76 m².
The Standard has a sail of 7.06 m²
Program
The sailing hours are from 09.30 till 17.00 with of course a break to have a nice lunch and chill at the Watersports Academy. Also in the evening there is enough to do. If the weather is nice you can jump from the Blob, suppolo or just chill at the campfire. This way you can meet your (new) friends! On Friday we will all enjoy the barbecue and the closing party. Or what about an exotic beach party?
Sleeping at home in your own bed? That's no problem for our younger guests! With us you can also participate in the sailing camp externally. We will pick you up every morning between 09.00 and 09.15 hours at the ferry. At noon you can have dinner with us at the sailing school and between 17.30 and 17.45 hours your parents can pick you up at the ferry or if you like at 20.30 hours after the evening program. On Friday evening we will end the week with a delicious barbecue in the garden followed by the colourful evening and a disco party!
