Try Sailing is an introductory sailing program where kids aged from approximately 7 – 12 join our experienced instructors in a Quest dinghy. Kids will experience the thrill of sailing before you take the plunge and join our Club and its Learn To Sail programs.

We will hold another Try Sailing event shortly.  If you'd like more information in the meantime, please contact sailingschool@bss.org.au
