Youth Outthere Sailing

The Youth Sail Training Program – OutThere Sailing

The Youth Sail Training – OutThere Sailing has been created for 12-17 year-olds who are interested in sailing and water activities in a non-competitive, social and fun setting for the whole of summer. Participants may have come through the Junior Sail Training program and want to further develop their skills, or be new to sailing and just want to learn a range of different on-water activities.

The Youth Sail Training – OutThere Sailing program provides a season-long opportunity for kids undertake a multitude of on-water activities, including dinghy and keelboat sailing, windsurfing, powerboating and stand-up paddle boarding. All these activities are taught by qualified Australian Sailing instructors, and utilise BYS owned equipment, so there is no need to have your own boat.

What equipment is needed?

Participants don’t need to own a boat instead utilising a range of club-owned equipment including dinghies, stand up paddleboards, keelboats and powerboats. 

Your own correctly fitting lifejacket along with some clothing to wear in the water will be needed.

When does Youth Sail Training – OutThere Sailing start?

Youth Sail Training runs over the summer sailing season, commencing in November and concluding in February each year. We sail weekly on Sunday mornings from 10 am – 1 pm. From after Christmas through January we sail on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday afternoons from 1 – 4 pm to make the most of summer, before reverting back to Sunday morning session for February.

Youth Sail Training – OutThere Sailing runs on the same days as our Junior Sail Training, so is a great opportunity for older siblings of our junior sailors.
