Membership Fees
The GFS committee has decided to increase membership fees modestly, around the general rate of inflation, for the new 2024/25 Membership Year. GFS will continue to have some of the lowest fees and offer the best value sailing experience of any club in Sydney. The fees for the 2024/25 season are:
Full member $540
Crew member $145
Tender/dinghy storage $260
If you have a tender or dinghy in the clubhouse you will be contacted later for the payment of the storage fees.
While memberships were current until the end of June 2024, from 1 July members will not be financial and will be in breach of the Racing Rules of Sailing if they race without being financial.
