Learn to sail programs that cater for everyone
There is an excellent junior coaching and learn to sail program offered for those who have not sailed before. For first timers the club provides boats known as Skyriders to teach children the basics of sailing in an informal positive style. As the children progress through the three stages culminating in racing, the children are encouraged to improve and extend themselves to achieve their best.
Adults are also catered for should you like to learn to sail. Beginners are welcome! The program runs on Saturday morning 9 to 11.30 between the end of October to April with a break for Christmas. For more information, email the adult sailing school -

The club is aware of the well-being of all members and guests so safety is paramount at all times. More information on the junior program can be found on the club forum or by emailing the Head Junior Coach on juniors@pksc.com.au.
Note: Kids need to be able to swim 50m
