Mile Builder Sailing Programs

Located in Courses | FastTrack

Our sailing mile builders take you along the Western Australian coast to experience true offshore and overnight sailing. There is a Dawesville to Quindalup passage coming up. You can build your miles for a Yachtmaster or simply enjoy the experience.
The aim of adventure sailing is to give you a realistic experience of cruising for extended periods and to have fun. You will sleep on board and share in watch keeping, navigation and helming and learn how to keep a cruising yacht fully functional while on passage.
You will build your confidence in offshore sailing and have a chance to really practice your skills in a supportive training environment. We have excellent Musto Coastal wet weather gear available to keep you warm and dry during your watches and quality fast yachts to eat up passage miles.
