Thank you to Phil & Phil

You may have notice some great work has been done recently around the club both in terms of controlling our vegetation, and in the planters by the clubhouse! This work has been kindly done by Phil Hoggart and Phil Steedman, thank you both!

Learn To Sail This Summer

We have a number of opportunities to learn to sail coming up this summer! For the grown ups we have an RYA Level 1 Sailing Course on 9th & 10th August. For those slightly younger we have RYA Stage 1 & 2 Youth Sailing Courses running every week starting on Monday 21st July! We still have a few spots left across the summer, including 2 next week!

New Fuel Locker

Yesterday our new fuel locker was delivered! This means fuel for safety boats is once again available from next to the pontoon. Please be aware that the new locker uses a different key to the one behind the Race Hut, and so there are now two keys on the key ring.

Club Regatta

This year our Club Regatta is on Sunday 20th July. We have a great day planned with four races, prizes on the day, and 3 starts per race! Following the success of last year's event we will be having a Main Fleet, Double Handed Fleet and Junior Fleet, with lots of prizes up for grabs!

You can see the special Sailing Instructions for this event on our website here.

Anti-Harassment Policy

As part of our Main Committee's continual work to ensure our club stays safe, and legally compliant, Dick Meredith has written a new Anti-Harassment Policy. This is available to view on our website here. This policy applies to our employees, as well as anyone volunteering at the club (including Race Duties and work parties). Moving forwards part of our joining and renewals process will be agreeing to certain policies including this one.
