Finn clinic and learning resources

This page is a work in progress.  It contains links to resources invaluable to aspiring and current Finn sailors and is part of a larger project to create an interactive and growing online Finn Clinic based on the successful Clinics that have been organised by the IFA for many years.

On this website there are a number of places to look for learning resources and Finn related information. Try Finnatics or  Interesting Stuff or check the Forum Clinic page.

If you know of sites or links giving Finn information, please send to the webmaster.

On other websites across the world the following information is available.

1. Soup to Nuts: The following link is to "Finn Sailing; Soup to Nuts", a prototype internet-based Finn skills development tool put together by Gus Miller and Jan Walker in the USA.  The next iteration will follow as funds become available.
