Sail Cruising Memberships
Boat ownership is no longer a barrier to boating; we have a fleet of boats waiting for you, allowing you to experience all of the benefits without the hassle or high cost. Build experience, knowledge and confidence at your own pace, with our welcoming community and skills building opportunities. With your full fleet to choose from, you don’t have to sail the same boat every time. Instead, choose your boat based on your boating plans and the size of your group.
Our membership structure allows you to pay one fee and then boat for free. Memberships will last for a minimum contract of 12 months. You don’t have to volunteer time or effort because we do it all for you. Repairs, maintenance, insurance, dockage… all of it!
Getting you on the water is our mission. Enjoyable and accessible boating is our business.
Depending on the membership you choose, you will have free access to a number of skills building activities, including Tuesday Learn to Race nights, Wednesday Night Racing, and a number of learning clinics and seminars. Members are assigned a Skipper Status based on their sailing experience, affording members the opportunity to sail all of the boats in our fleet, while ensuring the safety of you and your guests.
Members are able to reserve boats online, making sailing even easier!
