Fareast Optimist--Regatta

The Optimist class has long been a launching pad for generations of sailors, as the pram-shaped dinghy is stable, safe, and governed by strict One Design rules that ensure a level playing field at regattas big and small.

Fareast Boats USA has been building competition-ready Optimists since 2001, and they have been the world’s biggest Opti builder since 2004. Now, after many years and many thousands of successfully built, delivered, and well-loved Optis, the company continues to deliver high-quality, high-octane Optimists at an affordable price point.

Fareast Boats USA’s Championship Optimist gives your favorite junior sailor some of the fastest tools on the planet for winning high-level Opti regattas, while the Racing Optimist is ideal for sailors who are new to the sport or who are stepping into their first boat. Both models exemplify Fareast Boats USA’s attention to detail, and both are built tough, ensuring years of great use.
