SAILING ADVISORS
Our Sailing Advisors are based in our office at The Cruising Yacht Club of Australia.

Good interpersonal and computer skills are required and a knowledge of sailing is advantageous but not a pre-requisite.
"Myself and the crew of the Winning Appliances completed the World Sailing Safety and Sea Survival course prior to this year’s Sydney to Hobart race. Terry was highly professional and the course was extremely valuable, as it helped everyone to understand their responsibilities and practice strategies and procedures to prevent and address emergencies at sea. I would highly recommend this course and Terry Wise to anyone considering doing an offshore race"
We have made so many friends out on the water on their excellent range of boats with instructors Terry, Gardo, Phil and Damien – not to mention great introductions in the CYCA. They have recently assisted with great advice as we purchased and renovated our Marten 49 cruiser-racer. Later in the year – I need to come and do the theory for Coastal / Ocean Yachtmaster.
All of this wouldn't have been possible without my Aussie sailing family and friends through the advice, support, introductions, and generally making sailing so much fun. Thank you!! 😘
