Ladies Weekend Sailing Course

Part of the Brisbane City Council RAW (Real Adventure Women's Programme) this 2-day overnight course is the perfect opportunity to try sailing or have an overnight sailing holiday on Moreton Bay.

This course will not only teach you the basics of sailing yachts, it will whet your appetite for more!

You will learn to steer the yacht and work the sails as you sail the boat around the beautiful, sheltered waters of Moreton Bay. The course teaches ropes & knots, how to work the sails and winches, steering and using the compass and safety on board. Students also gain some knowledge of charts and what the buoys and beacons mean.

The RAW weekend course is held on board one of the school’s training yachts and includes all meals on board. The course departs from Manly Boat Harbour and the yacht will spend the evening at anchor or in another harbour and you will have the opporunity to enjoy the delights of some night sailing.

Weekend Bay sailing courses begin on Saturday morning and finish Sunday afternoon.

Your fully qualified Instructor will guide you through the mysteries of sailing the yacht which is comfortably fitted out for cruising to make this trip an enjoyable experience.
At the Southern Cross School of Yachting we teach sailing in the simplest and most enjoyable way possible so you will not only learn more, but  you will have a great time doing it!
