Speers Point Amateur Sailing Club (SPASC) is an accredited Australian Sailing "Discover Centre" (DSC) with accredited Dinghy Instructors. With a range of courses and coaching SPASC has a pathway to take to sailors with no or very little sailing experience to a competitive racing level with time and experience on the water.

Dinghy Sailing - Dinghies courses are tailored for both teenagers and adults and involve sailing on small exhilarating boats called ILCAs or Lasers (single handed craft).  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 10 week course we offer follows Australian Sailing's "Start Sailing 1+2" syllabus, at a cost of $550 per person, plus $125 half season club membership. Series 1 will be run over a nine week period with 2 hour sessions on most saturdays 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. It is currently fully booked. Series 2 will likely run Feb-Apr2027 in a similar format and timeframe.
