Welcome to HYC

Kia ora! We’ve been sailing the upper Waitematā and beyond since 1934 and would love to have you join us.

We’re focused on safe, accessible, and inclusive maritime experiences for youth and families. Once keelboat-focused, we now have training and development for all ages, with a special focus on Learn-to-Sail (LTS) programmes.

From learning to racing to enjoying the company of other sailors, HYC is all about simply giving it a go and having fun. It’s our aim and privilege to foster skills, confidence, and awareness that make our local water, and the sport of sailing, available to all.

Summer Programme

As we enter summer 2026/2027, there will be club sailing/race sessions regularly on Friday evenings and Sunday afternoons. We welcome prospective new members to come along to these, meet some people, and get out on the water.

For more specific details on scheduled events, email learntosail@hycnz.org.nz or check out our social media channels.

Our clubrooms have moved to the Upper Waitematā Marine Centre, at the bottom of Launch Road.
