Membership
Come along first. Join when you’re ready.
Visitors are welcome on any Thursday evening. Drop us an email via the contact us button below if you want to come down.
You don’t need a boat
Most members don’t own one. Those who do take those who don’t — that’s how the rally programme works, and how a good many people first got afloat.
You don’t need experience
Talks on navigation, flares, radio and first aid at sea run through the winter, and there are members with decades of it who enjoy being asked.
You don’t need to book
Turn up at eight on a Thursday, say you saw the website, and someone will put a coffee in your hand.
