Buy Winner Optimist
Choices of what to buy!
When you buy a Winner Optimist, talk to Neil at Wet n Windy whom can suggest the best setup for the weight and experience of your sailor. You can buy a new boat from stock, a charter boat or pre-buy a new boat from Denmark. New boats can be personalised with gel coat colours of your choice. Above are a few examples of choices of gelcoat and coloured grip being changed. You can buy a hull, a hull and trolley, add rigs and foils or buy the whole package including covers and a sail. The choice is yours! SEE THE GALLERY HERE
If you buy an ex-charter boat you can choose to take the complete boat or swap parts for others. For example, upgrade the N1 foils to DSK, swap the mk4 rig for a new Mk3 rig etc..
Things to consider.
Do you have more than one child in the family to whom the boat can be handed down to? Due to the longevity of Winner 3D Optimists, it can be competitive for several children. This is because of the quality of the gel-coat used.
The quality gel-coat is stronger hence needs less maintenance during the season.
Your child will have piece of mind. They will be using the same hull as the top sailors in NZ and the rest of the World.
Ensure the rig and sails match the weight of your sailor. Rigs once outgrown, if maintained, can be on sold second hand. Sails can also be on sold to up and coming sailors needing a training sail!
Foils. – Currently the DSK brand is considered the fastest foils in the world and is consistently used by the top sailors. Again and again I have seen sailors change to DSK and jump up the results!
Get good covers to protect your investment whilst it is being stored and whilst traveling.
If you are thinking of upgrading your boat, send me a message now! Or phone Neil on 021 724577.
