Sugarloaf Sailing Club has a program designed to encourage leveryone to sail. Both aduts an children can join the Squad as family members or as individuals fee. Either way, they are full members and can sail at Sugarloaf whenever we are open using our club boats. As members, they may choose to be trained free of charge at one of our training courses or may like to participate in Fleet 101 or both.



The Flett 101 introduces people of all ages to sailing and helps them develop their training skills. Our aim is for students to be able to handle a sailing boat with confidence and to enjoy sailing. We do this through on water training, coaching and experience.

Past sailors have become keen racers either at Sugarloaf or elsewhere or they have found other interests. In any case, they have acquired a set of skills that go well beyond how to keep a boat moving. Skills that will never leave them.

Sailing is a great sport but it can also be a lifestyle, a profession and a way of thinking.
