But most other classes provide training.. often by the same people who provide it to the "youth" classes.

If it isn't happening at your club then give your fleet captain or sailing committee a b*llocking until it does!

i think the reason i dont want to get into a boat that is suposed to be an adult class is that i think if i did i cant imagine what the parentals would do at opens and all the aldults would gang up on me . ive seen the laser sailors at our club.

how old are u?  pull yourself together. 

if anything it is better to be in an adult class cos they have so much more knolage & most of them quite like younger people in there classes. 

i wouldnt worry about the laser sailors,  useally there is a reason for why they sail on there own.

Awww Diddems!!!!!
As Luke said, in my experience the adults like younger people sailing with them and usually offer their full encouragement.  Also there are sooo many more possibilities in adult classes.  If you dont like a cleeky gang of people in one class just sail something else.
And stop crying.

Parents are only a problem if they have oppy sailing kids .

It's good if the adult sailors are competitive, it gives better racing.
