Flying Fish Sailing: learn to sail in Sydney
Flying Fish Sailing provides practical RYA sailing training, from introductory courses to Day Skipper, Yachtmaster and professional pathways. Based at Middle Harbour Yacht Club, it helps learners develop from passengers into useful crew and more capable skippers.

Make more use of your access to the water
A waterfront location can encourage an interest in boats, but operating a yacht takes skills. Flying Fish teaches practical sailing alongside the knowledge behind navigation and crew decisions. Beginners have a starting point, and experienced sailors have options to keep progressing.
We like that the school caters to different goals. Recreational learners can focus on enjoying their own sailing, while modular and fast-track professional routes support those wanting to work aboard boats.
Understand more than the sails
The wider teaching includes engines, maintenance, electrical systems, radio and navigation. Racing and offshore opportunities add other ways to gain experience. More than 30 years of sailing training sits behind the business.
We feature Flying Fish because access and ability complement each other. For readers interested in making boating a larger part of their lives, instruction offers a useful next step. The courses give people a place to build the practical skills that help turn a waterfront interest into regular sailing.
