We provide the opportunity to take part in the repair and sailing of yachts, helping you feel happier and more connected through learning new skills, being part of a team and supporting each other in a relaxed environment.

Our Story

Sailing On was formed in 2021 to improve the mental health of serving Australian Defence Force members and veterans.

The suicide rate among current and former defence force members in Australia is much too high. Sailing On aims to help combat this by providing opportunities to improve health & wellbeing through learning and participation. Our activities are designed around the act, belong, commit approach to - learning new skills, being part of a team, training and being an active part of our community.
