Do children race sailboats professionally?

A Future in Sailing

If you think sending your child to sailing camp is just a little fun for the summer, think again. Many kids go on to train as professional racers. In fact, the International Sailing Federation (ISF) holds annual World Championship competitions all over the world. Races are divided into boys' and girls' competitions in single-handed dinghies, double-handed-dinghies, windsurfers. There's also a multi-hull competition open to both boys and girls. Sailing camp is a great way to help your child develop a lifelong skill -- or even a career.
