There are over 100 Oz Goose Sailboats in the Philippines. A simple boat, that is easy to build with locally available materials.
We teach you to build a family sailing for around 55K php (2022) finished and ready to sail. There are also used boats that are cheaper and your family can also join sailing events with the goose group by hiring a boat at low cost.
A fast and forgiving sailboat, ideal for new sailors and great for racing or relaxing on the water too.
The main fleets of Oz Geese in Butuan, Albay, Taal Lake, Cebu and Subic Bay. There are other boats and we are adding more sailing centres each year.
Oz Goose is Low Cost Sailing
You can build a Goose for around 50K PhP, and there are used boats available for as little as 35K PhP.
You can also participate in a Family Boatbuilding Weekend (FBW), wherein ready to assemble oz goose kits are put together by participants in three days or less. Or you can buy a kit and build an Oz Goose at home.
Even without a boat you can join our sailing events
If you’re not ready to build a boat yourself yet, you can also rent them in various locations in PH at reasonable prices.

Sailing is part of Filipino Culture for 3000 years
Sailing clubs have started in several locations around the Philippines through FBWs, people around the islands are enjoying nature while learning the pleasures of sailing, seeing places the way our ancestors did, travel using just the wind. Contact us to find out how you can start your own sailing club through a boatbuilding event in your location.
Join our Sailing Events or Join our Volunteers Bringing Sailing To All Regions of the Philippines
We are a mostly volunteer group with the aim of bringing sailing to all levels of the Philippines Community.
Oz Goose sailors organise regular events including group boatbuilding, regattas, fun events, sailing coaching.
Our sailing community is inclusive. From fisherfolk to CEOs. We all enjoy sailing on the waters of the Philippines together.
Start a Local Oz Goose Building And Sailing Group.
Two years ago there were no sailing boats in Albay. Now they have 12 boats and teach sailing and run fun events every week.
In 2021 a group of friends in Albay decided to build an Oz Goose Sailboat each. They ended up reinvigorating the Albay Yacht Club, which is one of the oldest yacht clubs in the Philippines.
It is our experience that families, and community groups with some help from local companies can create a Biglang Yacht Club.
Four years ago we tested the Biglang Yacht Club to found a 20 boat Oz Goose Fleet built by the Seafarer Cadets of St Joseph’s College in Butuan. Sea Cadets that are now in love with the sea and go sailing whenever they have spare time.
Find out about the Biglang Yacht Club idea.
