Club Boat Hire
Our Club Share events are tailored for those who want to enjoy being out on the water in a relaxed atmosphere without the challenges of serious competitive racing. Whether you want to learn to sail or do a bit of fun racing, we have it covered.
What's more there is no need to own your own boat, we have an RS 2000 that Members can use.
With dinghy training available from experienced RYA instructors, you can also take part in a range of social activities including cruising, beach picnics and regattas. Here at Itchenor we have access to sailing water at all states of the tide, which means you can get out and enjoy the harbour anytime of the day.
You are also welcome to visit the Club by prior arrangement to be shown around the facilities and meet the team.

- The Instructor will submit a claim form in the usual manner; payment to be approved by the Office, subject to the usual authorisation.
- If a club owned sailing dinghy is required for one-to-one coaching this must be checked with the office, before an instructor is booked.
