We are excited to announce that Zoum USA is on board as a sponsor of Sailgroove. 

Mat Coleman heads up the operation at Zoum, based out of Ft. Lauderdale, and decided two years ago that he wanted to change the current Optimist sailboat market by offering a boat with an innovative biaxial construction resulting in maximum stiffness, at a lower cost than the rest of the market.

Just this past week at the 2009 Optimist Nationals, Axel Sly the National Champion sailed a Zoum Optimist, and Shawn Harvey won Green Fleet with a Zoum. 

 

Mat Coleman had this to say:

"Our mission is simple: sell the highest quality optimist at the lowest price.  The Zoum Racer uses the best structural materials and the most advanced components. We are gratified to see some of the best youth sailors steering the Zoum to victory. But the real objective is for kids at any level enjoy a better boat at a better value."
