CDSC has operated for over 37 years. It is one of the only sailing clubs managing to survive in the Central West, existing on the generosity of its members and many donations of both resources, skills and time.

Racing & Social Sailing
Racing is conducted using V.Y.C (Australia) Yardsticks and follow basic rules. All classes of sail boats are welcome, with Lasers, Solos, Mirrors, Access 2.3 and 303s, Corsairs, Maricats, and Hobiecats regularly in attendance (among many other classes).

Social sailing also takes place, for those with a less-competative nature, who wish to just enjoy the freedom and joy of just getting out and enjoying time out on the water. Arrive anytime after 10am on a Sunday.

Two races are normally conducted each Sunday, with the first commencing around 11:30am.

Junior classes are also encouraged.
