IMPORTANT!
If you have been a member of our club (or any sailing club) across Australia in the past few years, your details (including Australian Sailing Number) should be in our system. If you don't know your Australian Sailing Number, you can look it up here: AS Number Finder
Registration process starts by selecting the membership option (new or returning) and completing the details for the individual. Families need to enter each member individually in order to register for training courses. (Yes it is crazy, we are dealing with software used by Australian Sailing and many other sports in Australia which requires individual membership registration even if you are a family.) New members should make use of the Membership Process Tree pdf.)
Additional fees such as boat registration and boat storage (racking) may apply, and will be available for selection during the registration process as an 'add on' fee.
Learn to sail fees also appear as a Member Add-on.
The Club has replaced the $200 voluntary maintenance levy with a Fund Raising page. This shows current projects and you can now donate at any time and for any amount. Tax Deductible Receipts will be issued directly by Australian Sailing Foundation.
Please refer to pricing revealed during registration and your invoice total for all items selected, prior to payment.
Credit card fees are now being absorbed by the club, and payment by direct credit remains an option.
Members seeking storage for the first time should consult with the Racking Officer racking@nsc.asn.au prior to selecting a boat storage option, as places may not be available.
Detailed instructions can be downloaded (from below) which explains the self registration process, and the process tree shows menu options for common scenarios.
