The Club is open to all those interested in sailing actively or as a supporter of Club activities. The Club membership consists of around a dozen or so trailer-sailors and sails or races Saturdays during the season from November to May.  The waters of St Georges Basin are our clubhouse.  The first weekend in February is our famous annual Regatta and hosts visitors from all over NSW and beyond.
