Charter Yachts Australia would be happy to offer a generous 10% discount on cruises of 7 or more nights, to any one who has completed a Competent Crew Course or Inshore Skippers Course with any recognised Sailing School in the last 12 Months.

When you charter with Charter Yachts Australia we can offer you the services of an AYF Instructor from a selection of accredited sail training centres situated around Australia (a list can be found on our links page under Sailing Schools.) If using a local school the instructor may join you on your charter. Or alternatively you may wish to do a course prior to your charter. For as little as $120.00 you can choose from the following AYF accredited courses:

Introductory Course
During this one day practical course you will learn the fundamental principles of sailing, safety aspects, chart recognition, steering and compass use.

Competent Crew Course
While on this three day course you will learn basic safety rules and regulations, use of safety equipment and emergency procedures, radio use, introduction to navigation, weather, Aux engines, dinghies, ropework also practical sailing and helming experience.

Inshore Skipper Course
This five day course is designed for the more experienced sailor who wishes to be accredited as a coastal skipper competent in navigation, skippering a yacht on a coastal passage and all the responsibilities associated with this skill.

Your Instructor for these courses will be more of a sailing companion rather than a school teacher, and they enjoy nothing more than showing you the joys of sailing in the Whitsundays.

Prices range from as little as $120.00 - $990.00 We would be happy to discuss any of these courses further if you are interested, please EMAIL US or phone our Toll Free number 1800 639 520
