Club House bookings

The Club can be booked by Members for private parties. Please contact the Rear Commodore for details and to confirm the Club is available.

Club Boats

The Club owns a number of dinghies, from Optibats for youngsters just starting out thru to Lasers and 2000's for those wanting to race competitively. The boats are available for suitably experienced Members to take out. Please contact the Sailing Secretary for details of the boats and to confirm they are available for you on any particular day.

Mooring up at the Club

When both keelboats and dinghies are sailing, and there is a break between races for teas and coffees, the northern pontoon is for the keelboats, while the dinghies use the southern pontoon. 

Using your own boats

Before using your own boat on the Broad, it must be insured for racing and have third party insurance cover of at least £2,000,000. Also, it must be registered with the Broads Authority, and have the appropriate tolls paid (see: Annual toll (broads-authority.gov.uk)).
