Better Sailing is a step up from Start Sailing 1 & 2 so you can sail in stronger winds as you develop the skills required to get maximum speed from your dinghy using a spinnaker on our Pacers!

You should have the skills, knowledge and experience gained from the Start Sailing 2 course and you will gain your Better Sailing successful certificate at completion. 

The sessions occur during Sunday afternoon Club racing and will allow participants to view the boats racing on the water, followed by an invitation after each session to join the sailors in the Bar for presentations and a drink. The Sunday afternoon sessions provide an opportunity for participants to get to know other sailors and boats to aid the transition into the Club.

Mounts Bay Sailing Club is situated in Crawley, near the University of WA, only 5 kms from the City and easily accessed from Stirling Hwy. MBSC is an accredited Discover Sailing Centre as part of 'Australian Sailing'.
