This manual is for clubs affiliated to Yachting New Zealand to provide them with support, resources, ideas and guidance for running great clubs.

Yachting New Zealand’s strategic purpose is to deliver high-quality experiences and equal opportunities for participants of all levels and backgrounds that foster a lifelong passion for sailing, boating and the environment.

We recognise a major part of this is ensuring clubs are capable and strong.
