COURSE DETAILS

COST: $150 (Not including boat hire)

This program is designed to help get you from the Learn to Sail Courses and out onto the Race Course! We will have an instructor on the water to help you get around the race course either in your own boat (Cadet, Minnow, Laser, Tasar) or in a hired Pacer or Opti.

It can be a little daunting to go out racing against all the other boat so we want to make the transition as easy as possible.

You will be required to come down before racing and rig up your boat. You will also need to attend the race briefing as that is where you find out all the details of the race and have a chance to ask any questions you might have. Most races start at 1400hrs which means you need to allow for the time to sail out to the start line.

*All this sort of information will be sent through prior to your first session.
