Our Youth Sail Training program caters for participants aged 12-18 of all skill levels.

As part of our Single-handed boat program, participants sail in either the Laser class group, or the Social Sailing group. Laser participants are expected to have their own boats. The Social Sailing group take part in a number of different water-based activities including Pacer sailing, J70 (keelboat) sailing, windsurfing, stand-up paddleboarding and powerboating. If you have your own boat you wish to sail that is not a Laser, let us know and we will ensure that we accomodate you.
