Sailing

Launching from the club slipway, sailing takes place in full view of the clubhouse. Club members will assist in launch and recovery as required. Sailing conditions depend on wind direction, South-Westerly conditions have flatter water but more gusty, North-Easterly favour strong winds but high waves.

Club Facilities

HBSC will provide a fully catered Galley and Bar, changing facilities, disabled access, boat parking, motor home parking (see below) and assistance from club members for boat launching and recovery.

Accommodation

There is a good range of options in the area for AirBnB, Premier Inn/Travelodge and hotel accommodation etc. Our meeting is high season so it would be wise to book early.

Motor homes can be parked on the foreshore (the road to the clubhouse) subject to notifying the club in advance. Look out for more details in due course.

Parking

There are a range of car parks in the town. Parking for cars at the club is not permitted please drop your boat and trailer off on arrival and take your car off to park it.

Social Events

On Saturday evening HBSC have invited a musician to entertain from 8pm.

The club is catering for the event throughout the weekend including a bookable meal on Saturday evening.

The club bar will be manned throughout the weekend.
