The video definitely downplays the breeze! These young sailors were regularly in 20+ knots and 3 foot swells at the 2018 WIND Clinic and Regatta hosted by the Columbia Gorge Racing Association, July 17-22 in Cascade Locks, OR.
OYSF sent Program Coordinator Matthew Berger as a coach for the Opti clinic and donated the food for nearly 50 tired and sore sailors at the weekend regatta. A week in the Gorge leaves sailors with serious lifelong heavy air skills and memories.
