Cruz Club is a 12 month program designed to help equip would-be cruisers who are inspired to set off exploring the world by sea but don’t yet have the skills, experience or a boat to do it on and want to get prepared and do it right and avoid making costly mistakes along the way.
We provide training, regular access to a production catamaran and ongoing coaching and support to prepare you for cruising on your own boat.
We are limiting memberships to just 5 per boat to ensure members get plenty of time onboard.
Inclusions
Training
To join Cruz Club, you need to commit and sign up for the 5 day live aboard training program onboard one of our late model Seawind cruising catamarans to gain Day Skipper accreditation. This course can be completed whilst already a member of Cruz Club.
You must hold a General Boating Licence to join the course.
Monthly Boat Use
Cruz Club includes 3 days and 2 nights a month of private access to our club catamaran, allowing you to take your family out and introduce them to the delight of live aboard sailing, but with the back up and safety of a charter operation and qualified skippers.
Weekly Racing
Furthermore, each week the members can jointly race in our friendly afternoon fleet race with a skipper onboard to help continue coach the group and hone their sailing skills so you understand how to get the best performance from your catamaran. You will also join a community of budding cruisers including not only other Cruz Club members, but other boat owners who have plenty of experience to share.
All marina fees, insurance, maintenance costs, and yearly haul out fees are included.
Boats
Seawind 1170 – Sydney- BRAND NEW

Seawind 1260 – Sydney
The Seawind 1260 features three cabins, two bathrooms, a comfortable saloon and cockpit with indoor or outdoor dining options. It features twin 30hp Yanmar diesels motors and is designed for long range cruising in the South Pacific. Winner of Multihull of the Year just a few years ago it’s a great boat to cruise on.
