Learn to Sail
The Learn to Sail courses we provide are intended to equip the students with all the necessary skills and knowledge to safely and competently sail a small dinghy in moderate weather conditions.
The Courses do not include everything that a AUST SAIL course offers rather our courses are designed to just get you sailing using basic sailing knowledge and skills. This can usually be achieved by students attending a minimum of three 2.5 hr sessions which is the minimum amount of time needed to get you up and sailing .
