The Coastal Crusing Club of Australia, as the name implies, is non-racing. They meet in Mosman monthly and have a sailing get-together about as often, I think. Nice folks. Majority are retirees. Yachts of any type as long as you can sleep in it I suppose.

My sister is well below retiring age and has been a active member of the CCC for about 10 years. There are a few younger members. It is very much a social scene, most members haven't seen a swell except in passing West Head. Some however, have sailed the world.
A good bunch. Give it a go.
As an aside, wife and I had dinner with sister on her Valiant last night at Cammeray marina. Gee it is a beautiful boat, inside and out. They are living aboard and soon to head off to distant destinations.

Could be, cunning. If you want an occasional sail in Broken Bay pm me.

(name has changed from "cunningdavid" to "smartpig"!)

Thanks for the offer MB. Where are you based? It's been a while since I've sailed up there, mostly having been on racing boats on Port Jackson.

Ive loved those Valiants for year. Id own and sail away on one of those babies

I sailed Mischief (excellent name for a yacht my sister owns) down from Bundaberg when she bought her but haven't been on her for a few years. A true blue water classic now set up to be a comfortable home afloat.
