team effort

The Dinghy Racing Section is a team effort where families can enjoy time on the water together, participating in racing

and volunteering. Racing is a great way to get involved and enjoy friendly, competitive racing and the company of sailors, parents
and volunteers who share a passion for dinghy racing.

Love time on the water but racing is not your thing? The best place to watch the sailing action is from one of our support boats or the Start Boat as part of our Race Management Team. No special skills are required to be an on-water volunteer, just a love of spending time on the water.

For non-sailors, the Harbour wall is a great viewing platform and there are a number of volunteer roles onshore that ensure everyone has a great day racing.

sailing season

The Summer Season commences in October and continues through until April. We race most Saturday afternoons over the summer. The main regatta of the Summer Season is Sail Freo in October.

Over winter, we race the Huck Scott Winter Series. A round is held each month between May and August.

HOW TO GET INVOLVED

If you are interested in sailing or volunteering with the Dinghy Section fleet, don’t hesitate to get in touch with the Boating Office or the Sailing Academy.

MONTHLY MEETINGS

Our section meets on the second Tuesday of the month at 7pm in the Activities Room.
