I learned to sail in an Optimist Pram . While doing a little googling of rigid wing sails, I read a statement on the Wikipedia page that they have even been put on the Optimist dinghy. I then looked for a video of one. No luck, but I did find a photo
and this interesting video of a foiling Opti
. There are some pretty exciting things going on with this amazing little boat
.
Here is proof that, even if the Artemis can't do it, the Optimist can sail with no wind or current
.
For me, my optimist, named Sunflower Seed, represented independence. It wan't my introduction to sailing, but it was where I learned the basics and fell in love with it. How about you? What little boat did you have early experiences with?
