High School sailing is becoming more and more popular in the Twin Cities.  Club 420 sailboats are available to students in grades 7-12 who want to join a sailing team and represent their school. Students can race in local high school regattas and practice 3 days per week after school. High School teams sail in the spring and fall. 

Any 7th through 12th grade student can join. Sign up individually and be paired with another sailor, or gather a team from your school. Sailing experience is helpful, but a desire to sail is the only requirement.

The Club 420 is the hottest boat in youth sailing, measuring 14 feet long and weighing 260 pounds. It carries a mainsail and jib, and is very responsive and fun to sail. Club 420s are raced in local, national, and world championships at the high school and collegiate levels. You will sail on Bde Maka Ska (formerly Lake Calhoun), Lake Minnetonka, St. Croix River, and White Bear Lake against other high school sailors. You can even compete in regional and national regattas.
