The Worser Bay Boating Club

bulletWorser Bay Boating Club is the "Sunburst" dinghy sailing capital of New Zealand.

bulletLook out for our regular "Have a Go Day"
bulletRegular Saturday afternoon fleets of 25+ Sunbursts plus other good fleets.
bulletSee the Gallery pages for pictures of our Sunburst fleet.
bulletSingle design small boat racing at its best. National Champions lead the Sunburst fleet but there is intense rivalry in the middle of the fleet and lots of support and learning opportunities for beginners striving to get amongst the leaders. A fleet for every one.
bulletSunburst dinghies are ideal for Father/Mother and Children sailing. But also great for teenage sailors looking for good competitive racing. Prices are reasonable. See Boats for sale. And there is storage for boats at the club.
bulletThe club owns 6 Sunbursts. They are available for rent to graduates of a Learn-to-Sale program, or members with experience.
bulletLearn-to-Sail activities are a club priority. Both formal courses and informal coaching and help. The annual Hebtro Trophy event is a season highlight. It is a fundraiser for junior sailing.
