CLASS ASSOCIATION

The Windmill Class Association is an extremely active and involved group of sailors. It is not uncommon to see couples and multiple generations participating. The social nature of the group is inclusive and helpful. The social ethic is to share knowledge

with the intent to upgrade the sailing experience for everyone. A visit to the Class Website

page titled WINDMILL TUNING NOTES tells some of this story.

The Class is also resolute on maintaining the "one design" approach to sailing. The evolution of the rules for over 50 years has insured that all Windmills have the same hull & sail designs and remain competitive decades after they were made. The

Class also maintains a low-cost approach to equipping the 'Mills. The end result is a Class that is affordable and

competitive to all. Over the years, new technology has been embraced when it maintains the level competitive

playing field while providing stronger construction methods and ease of maintenance.
