O'pen BIC Youth Sailing Dinghy
Next Step Performance Upgrade from the Optimist Energized sailing for the young sailors on your list! The 9' O'pen Bic is THE link between the Optimist generation and the new generation of sailing dinghies that are fast, easy and more powerful to sail. It features a modern planing hull with self-bailing cockpit, sleek design with composite fiberglass-epoxy mast, thermoformed polyethylene hull that weighs 99lb., a full-roach mainsail with full battens, shaped fiberglass/epoxy daggerboard and rudder, and rigging worthy of the most modern dinghies. It’s compatible with your Optimist mast and boom, so kids can start out with their old rig and use just the hull to experience a boat that is more fun and powerful, yet easy to handle and progress with. Later, they’ll advance to the 48.6 sq. ft. O'pen Bic rig, and the boat comes into its own fast and powerful sailing they can still control.
