Members of Team BLUE will strive for greatness in all aspects of sailing including tactics, tuning, sail design and sportsmanship.




A team formed and sponsored by North Sails to raise the level of North American Optimist sailors. Through clinics, regatta coaching, and sail testing in addition to current team training regimens, expectations are high for the improvement of our young sailors all over the country.


If you buy a North Optimist sail, you are automatically eligible for Team BLUE membership. All you need to do is fill out the registration form. There is no entry fee.



Throughout the duration of your Optimist sailing days, you will try to earn stars that will be posted by your profile on the Team BLUE website.

Just being a member of Team BLUE makes you eligible for many great prizes from North Sails in the end of the year raffle including T-shirts, rashguards, backpacks and much more North gear. But each star you earn gives you a higher a probability of winning the grand prize, a brand new North sail.


The “Gold Star” is for winning a major championship with a North sail (Orange Bowl, Midwinters, Valentines Day, Team Trials, Nationals, North Americans)
The "Silver Star" is for winning any regatta and send in a regatta report (with photos, if available).

"Thank you for coming to PBSC and coaching our team this past weekend. I learned so much about sailing in heavy air, it was so cool. Since I'm only 64 pounds that's important and I have a ton more confidence now. Can't wait to get my new North sail, and I'm super excited about being part of Team Blue!"
