PROGRAM DETAILS

COST: $132

This Try Sailing Program is designed to show your child all about the fun of sailing while being in the safety of Lake Alexander. There is no limit to how many times your child can do this, if they enjoy it and want to have a friend give it a go, then they can participate again. Once they have had a go, if they want to keep sailing then you can join the Blue and Red Fleets (Blue = under 9's and Red = under 12's) where they will learn all the skills to eventually be able to sail and look after a boat on their own.
