Learn To Sail

Sailing:
“Is a freedom you can not truly comprehend until experienced. It is a skill well worth your learning.”
William Arthur Ward

We also offer one on one or small group instruction with some of our experienced sailors, including female instructors for any women who prefer to learn with other women.  This can be arranged at any mutually convenient time using your boat or our club boats.

Club Boats

Race Management instruction and mentoring is conducted for members who are rostered for boat duty or for any other members wishing to learn these new skills. This includes basic powerboat launching & retrieval, course setting, rescue & safety procedures, race starting and time keeping methods. There are also many other courses available for club members, including First Aid Certificate, Radio Licence, Powerboat Handling & Licensing, Assistant Instructor and Instructor courses, Rescue Boat Handling, Safety Courses, Judge Courses, Racing Officer Courses and many more.
