Gabriel & Kristy / Our story
A sailing dream. A growing community. A place for your brand.
Gab & Kristy — YouSail founders and dreamers.
We’re Gabriel and Kristy. Our dream is to buy a yacht, move aboard and explore Australia, then the Pacific and perhaps beyond. We’re learning as we go — taking courses, asking questions and preparing for life afloat.
We created YouSail because we wanted a place that connected the sailing world: the schools, clubs, marinas, businesses and people who make getting out on the water possible.
Now we’re inviting product partners to be part of that journey. Help us prepare for life aboard, and we’ll use the network we’re building to share your business and its story.
Behind every business, there’s a person worth knowing.
We interview companies. We ask about their stories. We look for the human connection that turns a business name into someone you want to call.
Real conversations
A listing can tell you what a company sells. An interview can reveal why they started, what they care about and the expertise behind their products. That’s the story we want sailors to discover — and the connection we want to help you make.
Information worth trusting
Sailors need useful, accurate information to choose a club, find a marina or contact a marine business. Our ambition is to make YouSail Australia’s most accurate sailing and marina resource. Building relationships with the people behind those listings is central to that work.
Our main gig. Every day.
This is our main work: building the network, getting to know the businesses and representing the community behind it. We want to show up for this sailing world daily — and build something our partners are proud to be part of.
The boat we want to build together
Our first fully branded, community-powered vessel.
A dinghy gets us ashore. A rigger helps prepare the mast. A battery keeps life aboard moving. Every contribution has a purpose — and a person or business behind it. This is our vision for a boat powered by its community.
We want the boat itself to tell that story: Saily on the mainsail, supporting brands on the genoa and YouSail on the hull. Online, in print and out on the water, we’ll keep introducing the people who helped us get there.

Saily explains the offer
You bring the product. We tell your story.
“Ahoy! Got a product that belongs in a life on the water? Help Gab and Kristy on their journey, and let’s help more sailors discover what you do.”
01 / You contribute a product
Tell us what you’d like to donate. Together, we agree on the fit and the partnership before you send anything.
02 / We put your brand in the story
Marketing across relevant network sites, social promotion, a featured interview, and your logo in our upcoming book and on the back of our merchandise.
03 / The partnership keeps going
Marketing for the lifetime of the projects, with a minimum of five years. We agree the placements and timing together.
Think beyond one post. Become part of the journey.
A partnership designed to build familiarity over years: your people, your products and your brand woven into the journey.
A one-off influencer sponsorship has its moment. We’re inviting you into a longer story: your brand on the genoa as we sail, on the uniforms we wear, in the book we’re creating and across the network we work on every day. Add company interviews, social promotion and a podcast in development, and there are more ways for people to get to know you over time.
For a marketer, that’s the opportunity: one connected partnership with a place online, in print and out on the water. We’ll agree the placements and timing together, including the planned vessel branding, uniforms, book and any podcast involvement.

The next chapter / Moving to a boat
Some stories deserve a place on the shelf.
The dream is the beginning. The learning, preparation and people we meet are the story.
Our upcoming book, “Moving to a boat”, will bring that journey into print. A record of taking the next step, asking better questions and discovering what it takes to make a life afloat possible.
Your logo in the book is part of the partnership: a lasting acknowledgement of the brands that helped us along the way. Long after a social post has passed, your support remains part of the chapter.
Proposed partner hoodie / back print. Design concept, with final artwork and production details to be agreed.
Wear the story. Share the support.
A familiar face. Your brand alongside it.
Meet Saily: the friendly face we want people to recognise around Australia.
We created Saily to make YouSail feel approachable, memorable and unmistakably connected to life on the water. Our ambition is for that smiling sail to become a familiar sight at marinas, sailing clubs and along the Australian coast.
On our proposed hoodie, Saily and YouSail.com.au take pride of place, with the logos of the companies helping us directly underneath. It’s a visible thank-you to the people and brands making the journey possible.
From a mainsail to a jumper, from a website to our upcoming book: one recognisable character, one connected story, and a place for our partners within it.

The flagship / Where it all comes together
YouSail.com.au
The big home for Australian sailing. The heart of our network.
A sailor’s questions rarely stop at one topic. YouSail brings learning, planning and finding the right people together: sailing schools, clubs, marinas, marine services, charters, guides, tools and equipment.
With 5,326 pages listed in its public sitemaps, this is the resource we’re building to be your first stop for sailing in Australia. The specialist sites go deeper; YouSail connects the whole journey.
Our diving sites can help cross-promote products in some cases — where they are also useful to divers, dive operators or dive boats. Think marine batteries, navigation, safety equipment and onboard hardware. We agree relevant placements with each partner, so your product reaches an audience that has a reason to care.
