Easing of Restrictions in Victoria

Hello Members

Here is the latest news from Australian Sailing – https://www.sailingresources.org.au/covid-19/

In Short:

  • Recreational boating is allowed as long as physical distancing and mass gathering rules are observed
  • Club organised racing is not yet permitted
  • You can go sailing or boating recreationally (not organised racing) in a single handed dinghy with groups of up to 20 people, as long as you keep the 1.5mtr distancing 
  • You can go sailing recreationally (not organised club racing) in a keel boat with up to 20 people as long as you keep the 1.5mtr distancing if they do not live with you

We are working on a Winter and Summer yachting and power boat racing and cruising program, and will announce it as soon as we are able to when restrictions are lifted further.

In the meantime, please stay safe…

See you on the water soon!
