Social Sailing
The sailing club caters mainly for off the beach dinghies and catamarans; however, Lake Wyangan is deep enough for trailer sailors up to 6m in lengths, which can be launched at the club’s ramp or the neighboring public area.
The club sails every Sunday afternoon from 1 September through to 30 April. All boats compete on Yardstick handicap to level out the performance of all boats. We also run a winter sailing series for the more hardy sailors. Often, it is some of the best sailing of the year!
If you are not into competing, but just want to come along any enjoy a leisurely cruise around the lake, and develop your sailing skills, you can do that too. There is always someone who can offer tips on how to sail better and have a chat with afterwards.

International Women's Day - #choosetochallenge ft. Lucy Bloom
2020 sucked. So BEC Business Advice is partnering with Griffith Women in Business to bring you an evening full of laughter, inspiration and networking, after a year we might all rather forget.
Change maker, momentum creator
“Lucy is as well known for her mohawk as she is for her business leadership and memorable speeches. She is experienced in building and leading fast-paced intergenerational and remote micro-teams. She has launched a number of businesses including an education start-up. Why does she have pink hair? Because she can.”
She’s is a rule breaker, idea maker and momentum creator inspiring audiences with humour and captivating storytelling, with the business acumen to fortify the message.
Lucy Bloom is a change maker, exceptional communicator and business fixer. She led an advertising agency for 20 years before she stepped into the role of CEO of a new women’s health organisation. In less than three years she lead a small team to raise $7M for a network of hospitals in Ethiopia. She then went on to transform a network of schools and health centres in South East Asia, as its first CEO. She now consults as a strategy machine and governance gun for start ups, NFPs and big business. With a few books under her belt and a great understanding of social media and digital marketing, she’s got something for everyone. You will find Lucy Bloom challenging and entertaining in equal measure.
