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.

What happens next

  • The secretary gets in touch
    Usually within a week, by email or telephone, whichever you’d prefer.
  • You come to a Thursday
    We’ll look out for you and introduce you to a few people. Still no obligation.
  • Membership is confirmed
    The committee approves new members at its next meeting, and you’ll get the payment details and the members’ area password.

WHO CAN JOIN

Anyone aged 18 or over. You don’t need to live
in Sutton, own a boat, or have set foot on one.

INSURANCE AND SAFETY

Boat owners are responsible for their own
insurance. The club is affiliated to the Royal
Yachting Association.
