WHY NOT JOIN US ON THE WATER THIS WEEKEND?

No I can't think of a reason why not either...

You could be crewing on one of our yachts or having fun with the dinghies. Come and give it a try or just come along and watch the boats on the water.

Meet at the clubhouse door by the harbour and we'll take it from there.
