The Devoti Optimist

The Optimist is THE entry class dinghy, used and loved by children all over the world.
A very basic design with safety and training in mind, yet develops some of the best sailors in the world.
And again, Devoti have applied their passion, quality and boat-building expertise with the highest quality materials
to produce a superb quality and highly competitive D-Optimist.
Sarah Ayton OBE, new owner of a Devoti Optimist, and Double Gold Olympic Medallist and Rolex World Sailor of the Year, said "Devoti have used their build experience and sailing knowledge to improve the Optimist as they did with the Finn, to make it a choice of champions". We look forward to seeing Thomas' results throughout 2020.
Megan Farrer, 2019 Devoti Ambassador,
​says "Devoti is a great boat to sail! high pointing skills,
​and the power ​into the bow gives you a boost on the reach through the chop !.
Much stiffer than any other make..."
​Megan's results as GBR No.1 Girl and Top 10 Optimist sailor clearly demonstrate.
India Page-Wood, first British girl to win the European Championships, said at the 2018 RYA Dinghy Show that she wished she had a Devoti Optimist now, as the results of those sailing them have been amazing ! Thanks India, and good luck in the future...
 Devoti use ceramic moulds to produce the super smooth finish to the water facing hull, which also give a higher accuracy dimensionally,  spend more hours than competitors to gain a first class finish every time, plus spend extra time finishing the D-Optimist, so you have the finest boat on the startline.
As with all Devoti sailing dinghies, every piece of their vast sailing and moulding expertise and knowledge
used from their Olympic winning Finns, is used to make this the best Optimist available.
​
Accept no other ! Every other Optimist is a compromise !

The exceptional results in European racing say it all, the Devoti is by far the best builder of Optimist in the world
