Bayview Yacht Racing Association: On special days only.

We have a winter recess in the colder months for the recreational fleet June to August. You will find a calendar of our sailing dates on this website look under Wednesdays and Saturdays.

What do volunteers do?

A range of things depending on what you feel comfortable with including

• Rigging and de-rigging the sailing boats – most disabled people are not able to do this themselves.
• Helping people in and out of boats – we have special lifting equipment for this.
• Going for a sail with disabled people – you don’t need to have sailed before. All our boats are designed so that they will NOT capsize, and we do not operate if the wind is too strong.
• Welcoming and encouraging disabled people to gain confidence and be active.
• Have a lot of FUN helping others and interacting with others.
