What's the world's largest one-design fleet--and the fastest-growing segment of the sailing market? The Optimist dinghy, the premier training boat for the next generation of racing, sports, and leisure sailors.

Today, over 400,000 of these light, trim, "portable" boats are in the water worldwide. Both coastal and inland competitions to enhance the skills of the young (to age 16) are held locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally.

If you're a boater, chances are you've seen an Optimist dinghy mounted on the roof of a car or van heading toward the lake, reservoir, bay, or nearby shore. Chances are you didn't recognize it--because it was covered.

Protecting the hull en route is an essential facet of competitive racing. That's why we began making covers for the Optimist dinghy. Our own next generation started sailing them, and we found ourselves strapping the boat to the car roof and driving north or south. We found the available covers didn't meet our requirements. They weren't easy to use, and they didn't provide enough hull protection. So we built our own.

Our goal: a one-piece cover easily installed that would enhance and protect the boat hull. The result: The Opti Quik-Zip ®, available in blue or gray, only from Mills & Co. Just right for Opti-Kids, Opti-Moms, and Opti-Dads!
