An affordable, athletic, and tactical boat  sailed in 30 countries, the Snipe Class offers National, Continental, and World Championships for all-women's teams. 

Women's events are competitive, but fun on and off the water.  The average weight for women's teams is around 130 kg/285 lbs.  An experienced Snipe crew (tripulante) is invaluable on the Snipe.  Historically, the Snipe attracts women from the Radial, Europe Dinghy, 470, and keelboat classes.
