Due to popular demand we will be running a kids a holiday Learn To Sail course. Starting at 11am until 4pm, over the four day event we will be covering all the basics that are required to receive the start sailing 1 certificate.

This Course will be for Teenagers over the age of 12, and will use the Maroochy Sailing Club Pacer Dinghies - larger than the Tacker boats. It may also be better suited for some 12 year olds who are growing quickly!
