We are pleased to welcome participants to our fun and active OutThere Sailing Program for Wednesday 15th December, 2021.  This one-day experience is designed as a 'taste' of our sailing program.  

Our aim is to get more kids out on the water having fun!

Session time is 4:00pm to 6:30pm

Sailing will be conducted on the Club's fleet of Force 24 keelboats, which carry an Instructor and up to four course participants.  The boats will be sailed inshore on the waters of Newcastle Harbour.

The registration fee for this 1-day experience is $30. 

The NCYC Sailing Academy abides by the Australian Sailing instructor:student ratios, hence places are strictly limited.  To avoid disapointment, we recommend registering early.

The OutThere Sailing program, for sailors aged 11 to 17 years, allows both complete novices to learn to sail and provide continued development & enjoyment to those who have sailed with us before.  

A big part of the OutThere Sailing program is the social element of simply enjoying time spent with peers and doing some thing fun.  OutThere Sailing will keep friends together and keep you learning together.  So a person who has sailed before can sail together with a mate who might be completely new to the activity!
