    Hello Club Locarno friends!

    You may have heard about the Waszp (a foiling skiff) that joined our ranks late last season. 

    Sailors and non-sailors alike are welcome to click on this Waszp Information and Survey Link to learn more about the boat and the requirements you need to get on it yourself. Answering the survey questions at the end will help our Waszp committee gauge how many people are interested in learning to sail it and schedule an appropriate number of lessons. 

    In addition, the Waszp committee will host some Zoom meeting information sessions:

    • Open to everyone (sailors and non-sailors alike - guests are also welcome)
    • Ask questions
    • Build your excitement and interest in the Waszp
    • If you are wanting to get on the Waszp yourself this summer, we definitely recommend you attend a session
    • Two different session dates - register for the event and then pick which date you plan to attend

    We look forward to growing our Waszp hive this year!

    First work party to get our fleet ready for the summer season.

    We can use at least 16 people: We will be stepping of masts, cleaning hulls, repairing and checking of rigging, foils, trampolines, and we will also put some effort into getting the hulls of our cats to a beaming shine âœ¨  (See here for the definitive how-to)

    Who should attend:

    • If you are Laser, Vanguard15, Tasar, RS500, Nacra500, Nacra570 sailors this is an excellent opportunity to show some love to your boats in anticipation of the joy they will give you during this coming 2024 season.
    • For sailors-to-be, work parties are the best ways to get to know your rigging and learn tips from experienced sailors and Captains, and get them to bring you as crew on their next sail, so you can practice and improve your seamanship too.
    • If you are unsure, there will be lots to do for all skill levels, plus coffee and donuts in the morning and pizza at the end.

    We meet at the clubroom and Vanguard/Cat storage area. Should it be raining hard, we will postpone the work party to the following day (Sunday). An email will be sent to communicate the decision to postpone no later than 0700 that day.

    Please sign up so we have an idea of how many people will come.

    About the boat

    The Tasar was designed by Frank Bethwaite and Ian Bruce in the early 1970s as a boat for couples. A very light (150 pounds) and sophisticated doublehanded boat (think rotating mast, whisker pole, to begin with). The class took off in Australia, where 50 years later it is still one of the most popular dinghies. Strong fleets eventually developed in Japan and England, and also in the Pacific Northwest, where good fleets grew in Seattle, Portland and Vancouver.

    It will be led by Bob Ennenberg, our TASAR Fleet Captain (and avid Jericho Regatta racer), who will tell you all the secrets and tips to get the most of this double handed racing monohull.

    You will also require an on-water checkout (Part 3); this is a separate registration. Details of our checkout clinics can be found at Sailing Orientations and Checkout Clinics.

    Prerequisites

    All checkout participants must know how to sail and preferably have experience on or an a similar boat class. We recommend you take a look at the Rigging instructions and the Tasar Manual to have an idea of what to expect beforehand.

    About the boat

    The Nacra 500 Fun is perfect for recreational sailing but can also be used for local club racing. At the Nacra family we also call this boat the ‘pocket rocket’. It’s a simple but really quick catamaran and easy to maneuver in different kind of waves with the large buoyant hulls. Launching from the beach is easy with the kick-up rudders and the skeg hulls. All working gear is from Harken, just like the other Nacra leisure boats.

    Next to all the features of the Nacra 500 Fun, the Sport edition has a larger battened MNX jib which reaches down to the spinnaker pole. Giving the boat more power lower down, more drive and less heel. The Nacra 500 Sport also comes without dagger boards and a simpler hull construction which saves weight and gains more speed. The 17 square nylon spinnaker packs in a cloth chute with glass fibre entry, making it easy to launch and recover. All in all, the Naca 500 Sport is in perfect balance and enables you to drive fast upwind and downwind.

    About the Boat

    The most popular single-handed race boat in the world. With over 210,000 made, the Laser is enjoyed by everyone from club racers to Olympians. The Laser rewards practice and good sailing technique, keeping even the most seasoned racer engaged. Current Lasers are built to the highest specifications with updated foils and sail controls. A three rig system allows the Laser to be enjoyed by sailors of any size and skill.

    There are three different sail sizes available on Lasers. The largest one is the Full Rig (also sometimes called Standard Rig) which is 76sq feet. The next size down is the Radial Rig at 62sq ft. The smallest size sail is the 4.7 Rig at ~49sq ft. The different sail sizes roughly correspond to the weight of the sailor, but can also be used to compensate for different wind conditions.

    Beginner Sailing Lessons

    This is an introductory course for beginners.


    In these 8 lessons, you will get 26 hours of instruction spread along 2 intensive weeks. You can expect to learn the basics of  CANSail 1-2 (that you will need to be able to check out Club Locarno Laser and Vanguards).


    During the lessons you will practice sailing techniques while learning about sail controls, rules of way, local geography, weather and wind pattern to expect in English Bay.

    You will have the opportunity to tack, gybe, capsize, and practice rules of way on our Lasers and Vanguards. You will practice rigging and launching, and learn your way through the clubroom, the logout system to check out boats and where to find sails and foils.

    The goal of the Beginner Sailing Lessons is to confidently check-out and safely skip the first level of Club Locarno monohulls.

    Prerequisites:

    • Being a member at Club Locarno Sailing Fleet.

    Sessions:

    • 2 Sunday afternoons:        16:30 - 20:30 (4 hours).

    Intro to Racing - Sailing Lessons

    Intro to Racing is a great way to learn the basics of racing, and is the course to take if you want to join the Jericho Tuesday evening/Sunday afternoon races, but aren’t comfortable joining by yourself.

    We will cover the basics of racing:

    • how to start on a start line, how to round marks on a race course
    • different flags and countdown signals
    • navigating close and around other boats while following the rules
    • race strategy while you are sailing around the committee boat waiting for your race to start
    • Skills: how to adjust your sail shape with your sail controls in order to get more speed out of your sails depending on your angle to the wind and the wind conditions

    Bonus - The following will depend on the wind, and the group of participants (and how overwhelmed with new information you already feel!), such as:

    • Bonus tactics: Sailing around the committee boat and start pin to get a point on the horizon to line up with the pin so during the start you know if you've crossed the line or not / Looking at the course to see which side has more wind than the other / Watching other boats already on the course to see what angles they are hitting / Looking at the tankers to see which way the current is going / Timing your approach to the start line
    • Bonus skills: balancing skills like roll tacks and rudderless sailing depending on wind conditions.

    We will have three on water sessions: two training sessions and then the last session will be joining the Jericho Race on the Sunday noon. This is a great way to participate in your first Jericho race with a coach present to assist you.

    Prerequisites:

    REQUIRED

    • Being a member at Club Locarno Sailing Fleet.
    • Having completed an equivalent of CANSail 2, Beginner or Refresher Lessons.
    • Having attended (or watched online) the Jericho Rookie Racing Seminar. There will be a quiz!
    • Recommended to maximize benefits of this training: 30 additional hours on water after CanSail 2 or Beginner Lessons, 10 additional hours on water after Refresher lessons.

    Sessions:

    • Wednesday evening:    1730 - 2030 (3 hours).
    • Thursday evening:        1730 - 2030 (3 hours).
    • Sunday morning:          1000 - 1400 (3 hours).

    In these 8 lessons, you will get 26 hours of instruction spread along 2 intensive weeks. You can expect to learn the basics of  CANSail 1-2 (that you will need to be able to check out Club Locarno Laser and Vanguards).


    During the lessons you will practice sailing techniques while learning about sail controls, rules of way, local geography, weather and wind pattern to expect in English Bay.

    You will have the opportunity to tack, gybe, capsize, and practice rules of way on our Lasers and Vanguards. You will practice rigging and launching, and learn your way through the clubroom, the logout system to check out boats and where to find sails and foils.

    The goal of the Beginner Sailing Lessons is to confidently check-out and safely skip the first level of Club Locarno monohulls.

    Intro to Racing - Sailing Lessons

    Intro to Racing is a great way to learn the basics of racing, and is the course to take if you want to join the Jericho Tuesday evening/Sunday afternoon races, but aren’t comfortable joining by yourself.

    We will cover the basics of racing:

    • how to start on a start line, how to round marks on a race course
    • different flags and countdown signals
    • navigating close and around other boats while following the rules
    • race strategy while you are sailing around the committee boat waiting for your race to start
    • Skills: how to adjust your sail shape with your sail controls in order to get more speed out of your sails depending on your angle to the wind and the wind conditions

    Bonus - The following will depend on the wind, and the group of participants (and how overwhelmed with new information you already feel!), such as:

    • Bonus tactics: Sailing around the committee boat and start pin to get a point on the horizon to line up with the pin so during the start you know if you've crossed the line or not / Looking at the course to see which side has more wind than the other / Watching other boats already on the course to see what angles they are hitting / Looking at the tankers to see which way the current is going / Timing your approach to the start line
    • Bonus skills: balancing skills like roll tacks and rudderless sailing depending on wind conditions.

    We will have three on water sessions: two training sessions and the last session will be joining the Jericho Race on the Sunday noon. This is a great way to participate in your first Jericho race with a coach present to assist you.

    Prerequisites:

    REQUIRED

    • Being a member at Club Locarno Sailing Fleet.
    • Having completed an equivalent of CANSail 2, Beginner or Refresher Lessons.
    • Having attended (or watched online) the Jericho Rookie Racing Seminar. There will be a quiz!
    • Recommended to maximize benefits of this training: 30 additional hours on water after CanSail 2 or Beginner Lessons, 10 additional hours on water after Refresher lessons.

    Sessions:

    • Wednesday evening:    1800-2100 (3 hours).
    • Thursday evening:        1800-2100 (3 hours).
    • Sunday morning:          1000-1400 (4 hours).

    About the boat

    The Tasar was designed by Frank Bethwaite and Ian Bruce in the early 1970s as a boat for couples. A very light (150 pounds) and sophisticated doublehanded boat (think rotating mast, whisker pole, to begin with). The class took off in Australia, where 50 years later it is still one of the most popular dinghies. Strong fleets eventually developed in Japan and England, and also in the Pacific Northwest, where good fleets grew in Seattle, Portland and Vancouver.

    About the event

    This clinic includes Part 1 and Part 2 of the checkout. It is for experienced sailors who want to be cleared to use a new fleet; it is also a great refresher. For those who are doing their first checkout, it will include an orientation to the sailing fleet and club room.

    It will be led by Bob Ennenberg, our TASAR Fleet Captain (and avid Jericho Regatta racer), who will tell you all the secrets and tips to get the most of this double handed racing monohull.

    You will also require an on-water checkout (Part 3); this is a separate registration. Details of our checkout clinics can be found at Sailing Orientations and Checkout Clinics.

    Prerequisites

    All checkout participants must know how to sail and preferably have experience on or an a similar boat class. We recommend you take a look at the Rigging instructions and the Tasar Manual to have an idea of what to expect beforehand.

    About the Boat

    The most popular single-handed race boat in the world. With over 210,000 made, the Laser is enjoyed by everyone from club racers to Olympians. The Laser rewards practice and good sailing technique, keeping even the most seasoned racer engaged. Current Lasers are built to the highest specifications with updated foils and sail controls. A three rig system allows the Laser to be enjoyed by sailors of any size and skill.

    There are three different sail sizes available on Lasers. The largest one is the Full Rig (also sometimes called Standard Rig) which is 76sq feet. The next size down is the Radial Rig at 62sq ft. The smallest size sail is the 4.7 Rig at ~49sq ft. The different sail sizes roughly correspond to the weight of the sailor, but can also be used to compensate for different wind conditions.
