If you - or they - are anywhere close enough, tell your non-sailing friends! Southport Yacht Club on Queensland's Gold Coast will host a free 'Discover Sailing Day' at the Club’s Hollywell Sail Training facility, Sunday 30 March 2014.

The Discover Sailing Day is aimed at increasing public awareness in sailing, especially amongst children, promoting the message: Sailing is for Everyone – it can be cheap, simple, safe and fun!

The event is open to everyone, with children and adults given the opportunity to ‘go for a sail’, under the guidance of qualified instructors. Buoyancy vests and all sailing equipment is provided. Attendees will need to bring swimmers, hat, sunscreen, towel, old sandshoes and a desire to have fun!

Mum and Dad can relax under the Clubhouse patio whilst watching the kids sailing. Breakfast and coffees will be available from the Club’s Waterfront cafe from 7.30am.
