My wife and I would like to learn how to sail and wondered if anybody has any suggestions to help find a suitable club. Ultimately I'm after a family friendly club we enjoy going to which doesn't cost the earth. We have two small children (8&4) so the plan would be to get them involved once we know what were doing. I would also be keen to purchase a boat once I've got the necessary experience so a short waiting list for a pen/mooring would be a bonus.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Cheers

Hey there Taylor,

try Mounts Bay Sailing Club at the end of Australia II drive in Nedlands, theres Social twighlight sailing on Fri nights from 6pm and learn to sail with qualified coaches and junior sailing on sunday morning and then regular racing on Sun arvo's. If you contact Cathy at the office, she'll be able to give you a lot more info.

There is a pen waiting list, I don't know how long it is though.

I am only saying this because this is the yacht club I go to, but Nedlands Yacht Club is relatively cheap and has learn to sail programs

It also is a lot less "posh" than other yacht clubs

NOR Claremont, Perth Flying Squad, Hilliries and Mounts Bay (Though not sure about pens they only have one jetty).
