Learn to sail, or progress your skills with Nelson Yacht Club’s Sailing School this summer! Our awesome team will introduce you to the sport of sailing in a fun and supportive learning environment. Courses and training are based on guidelines set out by Yachting New Zealand.
We organise regular Tasters, Learn to Sail courses, and progressive training, for both adults and children. There are also supervised sailing sessions, and informal racing, where you can put your newfound skills into practice.
Our Mission
A family-friendly club focused on providing educational, recreational and competitive sailing & water-sports opportunities for all in the Nelson and Tasman districts.
The IYT Try Sailing Course is a 5 hour course aimed to provide candidates with basic introductory knowledge for crewing a vessel (monohull or catamaran) up to 15 meters in inland or coastal waters <5 miles offshore during daylight hours in moderate wind and sea conditions.
Our Adult Learn to Sail courses comprise 6 three hour sessions over a 6 week period where you will learn the basics of sailing in a two person dinghy. The courses are led by a Yachting New Zealand qualified coach under a YNZ curriculum.
Learn to Sail course is offered by Otago Yacht Club Inc. LTS is for all ages and abilities. What should sailors bring? Sailors need suitable sailing clothing for the cold Dunedin harbour (wetsuit, booties/water shoes), a towel, and a warm change of clothes.
A chance to give sailing a try or have another go without committing to a course. Supervised fun and some help to get you started. Casual sailing sessions are all about having a good time and maybe deciding to take a course.
You’ll learn how to sail a dinghy. Each session will have a briefing before and after and we will work on all the things you need to know to be able to control your vessel confidently. If the weather is bad we’ll be learning how to tie knots
