During Term 4 and term 1, enjoy fun activities and the adventurous thrill of sailing in Bass Strait by enrolling in The ABSC Learn To Sail Program. Fridays 4-7 with hot chips after debrief!

Places are limited in the program. So if you’re keen or really keen go sailing, be sure to let your parents know and get yourself enrolled. (Min age is 8)

To secure your place please pick up an application form from the Apollo Bay Sailing Club website, fill it in and return it to the Sailing Club on Friday at 4PM. For safety reasons enrolments spaces are limited.

The listed $100- fee plus membership covers insurance costs incurred through Australian Sailing and also for equipment maintenance. Some parent involvement will be required. Please advise of your availability when enrolling. The course is run by an accredited AS coach, Assistant Instructors and many experienced volunteers. The club has access to 10 training boats and dedicated support craft. We have offered youth focused sail training programs for over 25 years at Apollo Bay Sailing Club to support community involvement at minimal cost to participants. We will support involvement where finance is a strain.
