    In consideration of my participation in the Buzzards Sailing School and Buzzard Yacht Club programs, I acknowledge, appreciate, and agree that: 1. I risk bodily injury, including disability and death as well as the risk of damage to or loss of property; 2. I knowingly and freely assume all such risks, both known and unknown; 3. I, for myself, and on behalf of my heirs, assigns, personal representatives, and next of kin, hereby release, hold harmless and promise not to sue the Buzzards Sailing School, Inc. or any of its officers, directors, agents or employees with respect to injuries or loss of property from my participation even though such injury or loss of property may arise out of negligence or carelessness on the part of the persons or entities mentioned above. 4. During windy days the Sailing Director will make the final decision about whether to conduct a class on the water. A student/parent/guardian has the unrestricted right to choose not to sail. If a student/parent/guardian decides that the student will not sail, the student should be picked up immediately as the remainder of the class will be on the water sailing. A student who is on the water and later decides to leave the water will be escorted by staff to shore where the student will properly de-rig their boat, store equipment and make contact to be picked up immediately. When the student makes it to shore, the staff member will return immediately to class to supervise the students on the water. Students returning to shore are not permitted to remain unsupervised at the clubhouse and must be collected by their parent/guardian. By typing my name below and checking the indicated box, I agree that I have read this Release of Liability and Waiver Agreement and that I fully understand its terms and agree to it freely and voluntarily. I further authorize the Buzzards Sailing School (BSS) and/or the Buzzards Yacht Club (BYC) organizers or staff members to sanction emergency treatment if a parent/guardian listed above cannot be contacted at the time of an emergency.

    Sailing is an intensely equipment dependent sport. BSS provides high-quality vessels for its students. The trained and competent staff teaches the proper rigging, launching, and recovery of all boats. This instruction includes but is not limited to the securing of spinnaker poles, sprit poles, and rudders. BSS students shall, without any compromise, respect BSS boats, and equipment. It is the policy of BSS that boats never collide. If damage or loss occurs due to negligence, or intentional conduct of a student, it shall be the responsibility of the student and his/her family to repair boats or replace equipment at the discretion and direction of BSS. BSS at its sole discretion may elect to use insurance and shall seek deductible reimbursement and premium penalties. The Sailing Director and/or Program Administrator shall make the determination if a violation of the above policy occurred. Further, if a student intentionally sails into another boat or object during class, including racing, the Sailing Director and/or Program Administrator may order a student off the water, and may direct the student to be excluded from BSS. No damage need occur to vessels for expulsion.

Description

Since students are solo in an Optimist, often referred to as an Opti, this class is better for students with previous experience skippering a boat or for students who are very independent with a strong confidence level. Please note that Optimists are not large boats. Therefore, if your student is over 5′ 3″ or over 90 pounds, we recommend the Learn-to-Sail Widgeon class or private lessons.
