Sailing Registration

All craft must be registered with the Membership and Berthing Secretary and a registration fee paid before being brought on to the premises. The membership form on this web site can be used to facilitate this.

Sailing Insurance

You must also demonstrate that the craft is insured. It MUST have third party liability cover for £2million. The value of the craft, fittings, and trailer is up to the owner but ABSOLUTELY recommended.

Sailing with Visitors

Craft temporarily brought to the Club for Open Meetings and / or any other special purposes will also be required to demonstrate third party liability cover. This is normally done at event registration but can be approved by a Flag Officer, Director or Member of the Sailing Committee under other circumstances.
