Speers Point Amateur Sailing Club (SPASC) is an accredited Australian Sailing "Discover Centre" (DSC) with accredited Dinghy Instructors.  DSC’s adhere to standards that ensure safety and customer satisfaction, in order to attain and retain this status.  With a range of courses and coaching SPASC has a pathway to take to sailors with very little sailing experience to a competitive racing level with time.

Dinghy Sailing - Dinghies courses are tailored for both teenagers and adults and involve sailing on small exhilarating boats (one or two crew).  Dinghies represent an ideal learning platform because thanks to their small size participants are safe and in full control of all sailing aspects. In more experienced hands though dinghies become action-packed boats suitable for sailors looking for a thrilling sail!

We currently run our Adult Learn to Sail courses twice a year, when we have sufficient numbers to justify running the courses.  The course offered is "Start Sailing 1+2", at a cost of $470 per person, plus $110 half season club membership. Series 1 will be run over a nine week period with 2 hour sessions from 11.00am until 1.00pm October 2026 to December 2026, and involves a mixture of classroom learning, sailing exercises, occasional racing and cruising to a destination. Series 2 will run Feb-Apr2027 in a similar format and timeframe. At this stage it isnt clear if the course will run on saturdays or sundays (or maybe both with high demand).
