Dear Commodores and GMs and Sailing Managers,

The Victorian Premier has announced changes to Melbourne’s restrictions returning to Stage 4 Restrictions effective from midnight (Thursday 27th May) until 11.59pm Thursday 3rd June 2021

While AS does not have the definitive outcome for sailing in the Melbourne area, the following points outline that Boating is not permitted and therefore all sailing should cease until further notice:

• Community sport closed
• Indoor and outdoor sporting facilities closed
• Recreation activities such as Golf, fishing, boating, tennis, and surfing are not allowed
• Outdoor sport; only allowed to exercise with one other person or one member of your household

We understand the disappointment that this news brings; but please be assured that we will update you and your club as further information becomes available.

If you have any questions or concerns in the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thank you

Meaghan Densley
