18.01.2022 The Altona Yacht Club Youth & Adult Dinghy Course will bring you from a complete novice to a knowledgeable sailor and provides a safe and enjoyable introduction to dinghy sailing. The courses include introducing and building fundamental boat handling skills and essential safety knowledge. At the end of the course we expect you to be able to jump on any boat, big or small and be a valuable sailing member.

16.01.2022 Saturday afternoon was a great day spent watching all the Yachts in the John Neilson race from HBYC coming over the finish line, several Yachts continued on into Wyndham Harbour where Wyndham Yacht Club members welcomed them. Commodore Gail Lines of WYC officially welcomed all prior to the results been read out by Vice Commodore Paul Neilson at the Wyndham Harbour Restaurant and bar. Following results Gail was presented with the HBYC Burgee from Vice Commodore Paul Neilson which was a special surprise. Was great to see everyone mingling, enjoying themselves and looking forward to next years annual race.

You can meet in a group of up to ten people from a maximum of two households outdoors in a public place to socialise (children under 12 months of age not included in the limit).
