Adult Learn To Sail

Whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to refresh your skills, our Adult Learn to Sail programme (16+) provides a safe, fun, and supportive introduction to keelboat sailing.  Courses are taught by Yachting New Zealand-qualifed instructors using the Club’s fleet of specially modified J24 yachts, with small group sizes ensuring plenty of hands-on experience.

Over three consecutive Saturdays, you’ll learn essential sailing and safety skills while gaining confidence on the water.  From there, sailors can progress through further training opportunities, advanced racing programmes, and crew placement on Club yachts.

All equipment is provided.  Participants should wear suitable clothing, footwear that can get wet, sun protection and bring a water bottle.
