Event Information: This is a one and a half hour on-land lesson focusing on the rigging of a Topaz Ranger. This lesson is the first in the Topaz Ranger series and is a requirement for the regular lesson. This lesson is also a good opportunity to refresh your memory on rigging if you already have your Ranger rating.
You can read the Ranger rigging checklist before the lesson if you'd like, but it is not required.
The Topaz Ranger lesson progression is as follows:
- Topaz Ranger Rigging Lesson: you will learn rigging and degrigging the boat
- Watch these videos at home before you sign up for a regular lesson:
- Topaz Ranger Lesson: you will learn to sail the boat and will have the opportunity to earn a rating.
Location: This lesson will meet under the yellow canopy next to the lake lab. If you are unable to find your instructor, or if there is inclement weather, please check in with the Outdoor UW Office.
Prerequisites: Advanced Dinghy Classroom and 420, Laser, or Byte Light Rating. You should have practiced sailing dinghies and feel comfortable with the advanced boats before taking this class.
