Hire a Minnow
We have 5 x Minnows for hire. Boats can be hired for a season to ensure your child is keen before you commit to purchasing your own boat. Hire boats are stored onsite at no extra cost. It is expected that children hiring a boat have completed at least one season in GREEN FLEET and are a full member at DSC.

Boat Storage
We offer storage of boats in the 'Green Shed' in the Inner Boat Park at DSC. Storage is secure and out of the weather. Storage fees are $60/boat per year. At least one parent is required to be a full member of the DSC and NT Minnow Association to be eligible for onsite storage. All boats stored in the shed are also required to hold Public Liability Insurance.
For Minnows already in the shed storage fees can be paid for with membership.
For new Minnows please contact us to arrange a space.
Measurement Certificates
Most second hand boats will come with a Measurement Certificate. This should be kept in a safe place at home as it will be required if a boat is sailed in the National Championships. Members can upload their certificates below as a back-up. When purchasing a new boat dont forget to ask about the certificate.
