New Member Training Program

BLAIRGOWRIE YACHT SQUADRON

NEW MEMBER TRAINING PROGRAM

Designed to get you on the water faster.

Here’s something very exciting that’s for all new, Full Adult Members for their first twelve months.

It’s called the New Members Training program and it’s designed to get you on the water faster, on a pathway to sailing and volunteering.

We know that the key to getting out on the water (perhaps for the first time) is feeling like you know what you’re doing. So when you join BYS, we’ll train you, and it won’t cost a cent to learn from experienced sailors who’ll pass on their knowledge to you.

It’s free, it’s fun and it’s open to you.

If you would like to chat about any of the courses offered, simply call the Sailing Office on 03 5925 9620.

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS

  • Become a full Adult Member, contact our Membership Services Officer to apply.
 
  • Browse the courses that we offer by the links below. It’s a  terrific way to try sailing and powerboating and to develop skills you can use when volunteering.
 
  • The courses (up to 3) can be shared between the adults in your Full membership unit. The courses must be taken within your first 12 months of membership.
 
  • When you’ve decided, it’s as simple as calling us on the number below and we’ll get the ball rolling for you.
