Australian Youth Driving Interest in Yachting

Online, December 13, 2013 (Newswire.com) - A recent 2012 survey identified growth areas and possibilities for Sydney's yachting community and also the yachting and cruise industry. Undertaken by a well known sports consultancy, the report has paved the way for the growth in Australia's yachting programs and initiatives. Approximately 30,000 people participated in the survey, shedding light behind perceptions about yachting as a sport and a part of an active lifestyle.

A new Yachting Australia survey has identified popular perceptions about sailing in Australia.

Over a period of 6 months, thousands of Australians were interviewed by a consultancy to analyse their responses about yachting and its various aspects. The survey, undertaken by the Australian Sports Commission (ASC) worked with different audiences, including stakeholders like Yachting Australia.

According to the findings of the recent 2012 Yachting Australia research report, school children and young families have expressed the most interest in future sailing plans. Relaxation has emerged as an important reason behind taking to the high seas and sailing, both among the current class of sailors and seafaring aspirants.

Sydney by Sail has rapidly established visibility in many spheres of sailing, such as sailing training, cruises and corporate getaways. The company is one of Sydney's biggest contributors to not only sailing cruises, but also an entire sailing lifestyle. Sydney by Sail's yachts are prominently visible on the Darling Harbour during major national and local events.

Even with a month or so to go for the New Years, the Sydney by Sail Hunter yacht range is already receiving queries from couples and families and rapid booking - all to get the best view of Australia's spectacular fireworks show. The Sydney by Sail crew was also out in full force during one of the most important events in Australia's naval history, the once in a lifetime event - the International Fleet Review.
