Learning to sail is a wonderful life skill, and the best way to do it is through an accredited course.
Sydney by Sail was established as a sailing school in 1995 by Olympic yachtsman Matt Hayes, who set up his first school when still in his teens. Sydney by Sail is accredited by the most widely recognised sail training provider in the world – International Yacht Training (IYT). IYT Worldwide standardises yacht training across the globe and offers an entire range of recreational courses from entry level sailing up to International Bareboat Skipper and Yachtmaster Offshore. Sydney by Sail has the newest fleet in Sydney Harbour, with different styles, shapes and sizes. Teaching on different yachts is important as it helps prepare you for your sailing dreams, whether ocean cruising or chartering. There is a vast range of courses with the entry level Introduction to Yachting course held over two days. You can also combine four different courses in The International Crew Package which takes aspiring yachties from beginner level to a competent and confident inshore skipper, also providing the necessary certification to bareboat charter yachts in areas like The Whitsundays or Sydney Harbour.
