Teens Discover Sailing
Get your Teen off their screen and out on the water during the school holidays.
OutThere Teens Holiday camps cater for all experience levels and are a great opportunity for teens to try keelboat sailing, explore Sydney Harbour and make new friendships.
Sailors who gain intermediate keelboat skills through the OutThere Sailing Program, or active Dinghy sailors looking to join a regular keelboat program may apply to the Squadron Keelboat Program.

Frequently Asked Questions
Holiday Camps
The OutThere Teen camps are designed for sailors to participate in the camps several times. These camps tailor the content to sailors’ individual needs and interests to ensure that they are always learning and keep having fun. Sailors are encouraged to invite their friends to participate in the camps, even if they have different experience levels. Our coaches are able to organise teams to match friend groups and ensure they have an unforgettable holiday experience.
Squadron Pacer Program
RSYS Sailing Academy’s newest program, Pacers, provides sailors the opportunity to sail in a double-handed (two people) boat with a symmetrical spinnaker.
