Whitsunday Sailing Club, in conjunction with Mainstay Sailing, will conduct an Australian Sailing “Safety and Sea Survival” course on Friday 14th August, the day after the completion of Airlie Beach Race Week. This course is a prerequisite for those planning to compete in major offshore regattas, including the Rolex Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race.

The timing has been planned to suit skippers and crew in the days between Airlie Beach Race Week and Hamilton Island Race Week. Syllabus includes all the requirements for either a full course or a refresher course for those who have previously completed the course.

To complete the syllabus, participants will be required to complete some on line components prior to the formal instructions.

Registration for the FULL COURSE is at https://www.revolutionise.com.au/mainstaysailing/eventsregister/70904/

Registration for the REFRESHER COURSE is at https://www.revolutionise.com.au/mainstaysailing/events/71044/
