We welcome you
and your family
We run training programs, races, social events and workshops in which all members are welcome to participate. The club is open for use any day of the year, and many sailors, kayakers, stand-up paddleboarders and rowboat enthusiasts get out on the water year-round. We hope you will enjoy many wonderful moments on the ocean in the watercraft of your choice, and on land by the seaside.

Boat Storage and Locker Rental Fees
You must be a member of the club to access storage space. A storage space wait-list – open to members only – is kept by the Rear Commodore.
Each space is allocated to the club member and not to the boat. Accordingly, the space can not be transferred with the boat if the boat is sold.
Inactive boats may not be stored on the club premises and members will be asked to remove them.
Membership fees permit the use of the club ramp even if the boat is not stored at the club.
All boats, other than rack-stored, are required to have their own launching dolly. No road trailers are allowed on the premises as storage trailers.
