Be Prepared. Have The Right Gear.
Below are some helpful guides to acquiring the right gear for your sailor. The value in terms of safety and success when wearing the correct gear is big.
Team Rules Regarding Gear:
1. Life Jackets must be Coast Guard Approved
2. Closed toed shoes must be worn at all times
3. Warm fleece
3. Sunscreen
4. Mask or gaitor
5. Bag that fits your stuff. Mark your belonging clearly.
The Coach has the ability to deem a sailors gear unacceptable for sailing and not let them on the water until they have appropriate gear for the given conditions.
"Hope for nice comfortable weather, prepare for the worse"
FJ sailing is year-round ; in the winter that can mean cold wind and low water temperatures.
Check out the gear guide for a general idea of what is suggested for sailors at practice and to compete in regattas in comfort .
Purchasing Gear It's an investment - start with the essentials, go from there. There are many cost-effective ways to acquire the appropriate gear. We've provided some resources below, but know that simply asking team members and "seasoned" parents can also be a great way to get ideas, and buy used gear.
Essentials When purchasing sailing gear it can be overwhelming - there are a lot of components and it can add up. Focus on acquiring the essentials and then invest in additional items from there.
Essentials (1st week of sailing):
- Life Jacket / PFD must be coast guard approved TYPE III
- Wet-suit or bibs in winter or shorts when it gets warmer
- Closed toed shoes
- Old fleeces, jogging/work-out pants under your shorts work great as layers
- Old sneakers are fine for footwear
- Rain jackets and pants are okay till you have spray tops and bibs
..Once you're serious, the right gear makes the difference. You and your sailor(s) will want to start investing in sailing specific gear as they become more committed to the sport so they are more comfortable and have more appropriate gear. See below some examples of specific sailing gear you'll want once you are serious.
