Changi sailing club, Netheravon Road past Changi Village.
Great club - really laid back , offering term membership for $1000
tel 654 528 76
I'm taking dinghy sailing lessons with their resident guy, Chen Quo (may not have spelt this correctly!) He is very patient and certainly knows what he's talking about.
Good luck, hopefully see you there!

Ok will let you off - my children refer to power boats as 'dirty stinkpots'!!
Lots of sailing to be done in the area, definitely check out the Changi Sailing Club as there are lots of experts there for your 'nautical needs'!
Have fun on the water
