| Nedlands Yacht Club offers Yachting Australia certified "Start Sailing" courses at periodic intervals across the sailing season. Each course comprises of a series of lessons conducted on weekend or shcool holiday mornings in the beautiful and protected waters of the Swan River. The wind is typically light to moderate in the mornings and great for learning how to sail. |
NYC uses Yachting Australia accredited instructors and we provide all course specific equipment, including Puffin Pacer training dinghies and Personal Flotation Devices (life jackets) for all attendees. Students will receive a Yachting Australia logbook to track course progress. The logbook can be used at NYC or any club that teaches Yachting Australia certified courses.
