Built for speed, the 29er prepares young athletes for high performance sailing in teams of men, women and mixed pairs. The 29er offers competitive racing pathways to high performance sailing and an Olympic pathway to Men’s 49er and Woman’s 49erFX. Athletes should have experience in 29er to register for this team.

STAR runs annually at SMSC every Spring and Fall with training camps at member clubs throughout the summer season, and attendance at national and international regattas as sailor interest dictates. We run squads for Opti, c420, Laser and 29er, as numbers allow and we like to fill the ranks with like-minded athletes that share similar attitudes and outlooks.
