No. Most students worldwide sail in Prams/Optimists until age 15. Primarily the Hunters will be designated for three Beginner students & an instructor per boat. The Prams/Optimists will generally be used for Intermediate & Advanced levels (ages 9-13). Intermediate & Advanced students ages 13-17 will sail in 420’s.
