Australian Sailing - 2. Tackers Intro

Course information

This course is sold out.

Try Sail is our introductory sailing course for children aged 7-10. The course aims to deliver a fun on-water experience for kids to try the sport of sailing at an affordable entry price. The course is run by Australian Sailing accredited instructors and incorporates games and group training drills to develop fundamental skills in a safe environment.

By adapting and improving Australian Sailing's template course "Tackers", we now deliver it in a more refined format which we call "Try Sail".
Our narrow age bracket allows us to deliver the course in a more focused and engaging way to maximise both learning and enjoyment for the sailors. 

You can see more about the template course, Tackers, below.
