About Us

October 2023

We’ve been at our new home for 3 years and we see our numbers grow steadily. Our IOM racing has continued to develop and at our best we now see fleets of 12-15 boats racing in all weather and the fleet has progressively modernised over the past few years.

The DF95s sailing is proving a very attractive class for newcomers and seasoned pros alike and we now have 12 -15 boats in the club with 10 or so sailing every Friday. We have ample opportunities for both experts and novices alike and offer competitive racing in good sized fleets. Our members regularly provide one-on-one tuition where required and offer weekly training sessions where you’ll find friendly help to get your boat going well. If you’re new to the sport, with advance notice, we’ll do our best to have a variety of boats available for you to sail to help you decide which class of boat suits your needs best.

We also have a very healthy fleet of Nottingham J48 boats which sail periodically when the conditions don’t favour boats with long deep keels. The beauty of these boats is undeniable and they make a graceful site.

DF65, DF95, IOM, Marblehead, A Class, Scale models, Historic sailing boats, Footy and anything that uses wind power.
