Tackers Green Fleet - Spring 2023

Now it’s time to learn to sail around a course and become more independent!

Our Green Fleet is open to young sailors who have completed Tackers 3 and are keen to try their hand at sailing around a course and learning more about racing.  You’ll have a coach on water with you for assistance & guidance, but you’re now becoming a more proficient sailor & making decisions yourself!

Our Green Fleet sail on Sunday mornings during Spring & Summer.  The first race starts at 10:00am so, to give yourself time to be rigged and ready (this is now your responsibility), we suggest you arrive around 9:00am.  We are able to sail up to five short races each week (around 15 – 20minutes each) however the number we sail will depend upon the wind & weather.

For more information about Green Fleet - CLICK HERE - and select the Green Fleet tab.  You can download the program and the 'race documents' which have all the details about our Green Fleet racing.

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

The entry fee for this racing program is $220.
