Our hugely popular Adult Learn to Sail sessions are back for the 26/27 season!
Dates: Sunday October 11, 18 and 25 from 9:00am to 1:00pm
Ever look out on the water, see all those lovely boats and sailors having a great time, and wish you could be a part of it? Well, if you never learned to sail as a kid and thought that your chance at sailing had passed you buy - fear not! Whether you want to learn the basics so you can start your sailing journey, join your kids and sail as a family, refresh your memory, or just enjoy some time out on the water, this is the course for you. You'll learn how to sail in a 2-person boat called a Pacer (so you'll be in the boat with another person at all times). These boats are great fun and perfect for beginners to sailing.
In this beginner-level course, run by our qualified Australian Sailing Instructors, you will:
Learn how to rig and launch a boat
Practice tacking, steering, and stopping safely
Gain confidence on the water
Be supported every step of the way by experienced instructors
Have a fantastic time learning a new skill and sport
No prior experience necessary! However....
You will need to be a competent swimmer.
Be physically able to help rig up and move boats from the club to shore (it's a bit of pushing and pulling boat trollies around - not terribly difficult when everyone helps out) and with enough mobility to climb into and out of the boat when in the water.
We supply life jackets. Ideally, you'll have a wetsuit but it's not absolutely necessary if you have warm clothes that can get wet.
