DSS SailPASS Membership

WANT TO GO SAILING – RACE DAY ACCESS
At the Derwent Sailing Squadron we make it easy and affordable for potential new members to try out yacht racing on the River Derwent and our facilities without having to immediately subscribe to annual membership.
The Squadron provides a ‘SailPass Membership’ at NO cost to anyone who is not already a member of any Australian Sailing affiliated club. This enables you to sail from the Squadron and to then use the clubhouse facilities post-race. The ‘SailPass Membership’ allows you to do this up to 6 times after which you will be encouraged to subscribe to our low cost annual crew membership.
