Set Sail with Confidence: Two-Day Crew and Helm Courses for Aspiring Sailors


A comprehensive sailing experience awaits beginners and developing sailors through specialized crew and helm courses designed to build confidence on the water. Each course runs over two full days, with lessons held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., allowing participants to choose training dates that best fit their schedules. The flexible format means the two sessions do not need to take place on the same weekend, providing greater convenience for learners.


The Start Crewing course offers the perfect introduction to keelboat sailing, guiding newcomers through essential skills and knowledge needed to become confident crew members. With a focus on practical learning, participants discover the fundamentals of sailing, boat handling, teamwork, and safety while gaining valuable hands-on experience under expert guidance.


For those ready to progress further, Start Helming provides the next step in the Australian Sailing pathway. Building on crewing skills, this advanced beginner course teaches participants how to prepare the boat, confidently steer, trim sails across different points of sail, and carry out a man overboard recovery while at the helm.


Led by experienced and passionate instructors, both courses combine essential theory with extensive practical training to create an engaging and supportive learning environment. Safety equipment, including life jackets, is provided, while participants simply need to bring sun-protective clothing, sunscreen, non-marking shoes, and drinking water for an enjoyable and rewarding sailing experience.
