Maximum Crew Coordination

Finely tuned crew management plan & coordination increases race performance exponentially.  Under expert instruction, learn race crew tactics and communication tips that turn a reasonably decent crew into an exceptional team.

6-day Melges 24 Performance Clinic (may be divided into two 3-day clinics) studying under the east coast's top performance instructors provides top notch crew confidence and experience for Tactician, Helmsperson, Spinnaker Trimmer, Jib Trimmer and Fore Deck.


The first three days includes boat handling and management, crew teamwork, sail and rig tuning and close quarter maneuvering.

The second three days includes advanced racing maneuvers. The course focuses on tactics, close quarters, upwind, downwind, starting and weight placement in heavy, moderate and light air.
