Boats The 'Sailskills programme' was started in November 1986 with 34 youths sailing on 15 Squadron keelboats to further their experience and knowledge of keelboat racing.  On the 10th October 1987 a fleet of ten Elliott 5.9's were launched at the Squadron beginning the RNZYS Youth Training Programme in it's intensive year long form that is continued today.  In January 2000 the 5.9's were replaced with ten Elliott 6's and now on the 30th May 2010 the Squadron launched ten Elliott 7's.
