Middle Atlantic Midget Champs Background
- Boat Class
- C420
Optimist
Great South Bay, NY
On-water coaching is not allowed because plenty of safety patrol boats are provided by the host for the MAMC for the fleet of up to 16 boats each class.
After the MAMC is over, the JSA will reimburse the entry fees for the two Optis and two C420 boats that were previously acknowledged as the YRA of LIS region entries.
Note: The JSA LIS invites only the sailors who are sailing at clubs located in the YRA LIS region of western LIS. The Eastern Connecticut, Eastern Long Island and Great South Bay regions also participate in the MAMC, so JSA of LIS sailors who participate in a summer program located at a club in those regions may inquire if they may enter as a representative of those regions that are outside of the YRA LIS region.

The US Sailing Level 1 Instructor course is divided into two sections:
- A 3-day in-person section of the Level 1 course is approximately 30 hours and students will be evaluated on their teaching ability, sailing skills, powerboat handling skills and on-water class management, among other topics.
- A self-guided online introduction section of Level 1. The self-guided section allows participants to learn at their own pace and includes no scheduled interaction with an Instructor Trainer. This online course must be completed prior to attendance at the 3-day in-person section. US Sailing recommends that the in-person section is attended within three months of the online course completion for maximum retention and successful completion.
