Corporate Sailing | Oceanwest

Whether it is for entertainment or for team work we can provide a great program for your guests.

Unique Guest Experiences

After a busy day of negotiations or briefings, when you reach that point and you really need something different to do, then take them sailing!! We can provide a totally different activity that will be appreciated. Your guests can enjoy two or more hours sailing around Geographe Bay onboard Samsara, our luxurious cruising yacht.

Everybody onboard can relax and enjoy views of Busselton from the sea, or they can try sailing. There is plenty of space on board so guests do not feel crowded in which creates a good opportunity for conversations to flow in an easy and relaxed manner.

A two hour cruise costs $795, four hour cruises cost $995 and you would need to allow 15 minutes pre and post cruise. If you have more time available, why not book a full day cruise at $1795 and enjoy lunch onboard from our catering menu and a swim by the beach. Please contact us on 0412 060 130 or email sailing@oceanwest.net.au

Team Building

To keep an ocean going yacht running efficiently you need to be able to read the environment, communicate well, and work as a team that is capable of rapid decisions and flexible thinking.

We can custom design a corporate experience that takes participants through a series of challenges that emphasise the importance of communication, teamwork and cooperation. Qualified instructors will coordinate the program and this can be combined with onshore briefings. The program will help to build leadership in your team, and contribute to an espirit de corps that emerges from groups who have been challenged and have succeeded.

Prices start from $450 per person for a full day for up to 6 participants (minimum of 4).

					  Even though I've sailed for many years, I've realized after completing the RYA Navathome online theory and the 5 day practical course with Gary onboard his beautiful 41ft yacht Samsara,... read more that there's so much to learn and always a better / safer way of doing things out on the water. 

Gary is a highly skilled, knowledgeable and professional instructor. He has a very patient, friendly and relaxed manner that puts people at ease, promoting confidence and enthusiasm to learn, even in those with little or no sailing experience.

My partner and I greatly enjoyed our time on board Samsara. She is fast, spacious, comfortable and responsive across a broad range of weather conditions, making for an exciting and fun sail learning experience.

Gary, Joanne and their team at Oceanwest Charters run a highly efficient and professional sailing school. We highly recommend them for all sailors who want to take their sailing experience and knowledge to the next level.

					  Had some great time completing the RYA day skipper course with OceanWest Charters in Busselton. 

Gary is an extremely knowledgeable, highly skilled and experienced teacher. And maybe the most... read more important excellent in transferring those sailing skills to his students. 

If you are looking for a sailing school in WA (either to learn how to sail or improve existing skills) I would highly recommend Oceanwest Charters from Geographe Bay. 

Gary's yacht is exceptional, near new and extremely comfy. I've been sailing the Mediterranean in the past years and spent weeks in a variety of sailing yachts but Gary's custom specked Beneteau Oceanis 41 beats them all. 

Marina in Geographe Bay is great with clean ablution block.

Food was delicious

If you're lucky having some strong winds you'll have some fun - not for the faint-hearted though 🙂

After such a great experience I have gladly booked another week in April this year to further build my sailing skills as there's a lot to learn from Gary.

					  This was a bit of an impulse purchase for myself, but I came away thoroughly impressed. I decided to complete the RYA day skipper course because I knew that I... read more had a fair bit to learn around boat handling and coastal navigation.

I was amazed by how much I learned on the course. Gary creates an amazing learning environment whilst still having a lot of fun. 

Highly recommend this team for anyone who wants to improve their skills or is starting out for the first time.
