Island Sailing : Let’s Play!
Island Sailing Experiences
At the heart of sailing
ISC Sonar Keelboats
The Club owns a fleet of 9 professionally maintained 23ft matched Sonar keelboats which are available for hire to Members and non-Members, corporate organisations and other sailing clubs. The boats are moored 50 metres from the Club and accessed by the Club’s famous yellow launches. They are ideal for 4 persons for gentle sailing or with spinnakers for lively team and match racing.
Race Management
The ISC has an excellent and proven track record of organising and managing sailing events and regattas throughout the year and the Club provides superb hospitality. Races are run from both committee vessel starting lines and from the Club’s roof top race box. Highly experienced race teams are available to plan and organise regattas lasting from a single day or weekend to a week long Club or Class Regatta, National or International Event.
Full support both on and off the water
Everything You Need
Event Support
The Island Sailing Club provides excellent race support facilities to Clubs, Class Associations / racing fleets to organise round the cans racing, windward leeward courses or longer day races e.g. Nab Tower and back. A full time Sailing Secretary will work with you to ensure your event is a success and will liaise with local marinas for berthing, accommodation agents etc. to ensure your competitor requirements are met and, if required, negotiate bulk discounts on ferry travel for competitors and supporters. He will write and publish all your race documents and publish online race results.

The main restaurant can accommodate 140 sailors for an event dinner or a rally / regatta lunch, or up to 200 for a Buffet / BBQ in our Lower marquee. Smaller meeting rooms are available for AGMs, Class meetings, etc.
