Class Association
Topper International training and squad fleets, recognised as a World Sailing Learn to Sail class

History

Introduced by Topper International in 2012, the Omega was built as the roomy end of the Topaz range, with a wide cockpit that suits schools, sailability programs and families sailing together.

Sailing Characteristics

Stable enough to carry an instructor plus several beginners without feeling twitchy, but still powered up enough on the spinnaker to plane when a more experienced crew wants to push it.

Racing Context

Found mostly in club and school fleets rather than a competitive circuit, the Omega does club racing and pursuit races well when clubs want one boat that suits both training and fun sailing.
