Club Facilities

    The Clubhouse is situated on the attractive Helford River on the edge of Helford Village.
   All visitors are very welcome.
   During the winter months showers and toilet facilities will be open at   normal office opening times:
   Monday/Wednesday/Friday 09.30 - 12.30hrs

   We have a laundry facility comprising of washing machine and tumble drier.
   We also have showering   facilities for those requiring them after a hard days sailing.

   For those who wish to become involved in the sailing side of the Club we offer various sailing events   and training.

   Further details of club facilities are shown below.

Dinghies
The Club has its own dinghy fleet which comprises Wanderers, Wayfarers and Toppers, all of which are available for use during Club dinghy racing which is currently held on Thursday evenings. However, the Club dinghies are only available when there is a rescue boat in attendance and with the approval of Captain Dinghies.
Keelboats
The Club offers a full and varied programme of sailing/races/events during the season which all members are invited to join.
Training
Available to our junior members on a Friday evening and to adult members on a Tuesday evening throughout the summer. All training is taken by volunteer members who act as instructors. The training is run in accordance with RYA standards but we are not an RYA School.
Dinghy Park, Pontoon and Dinghy rack
The Club has these facilities available. However, membership to the Club does not give any member automatic right to the use of any of these facilities. We run a waiting list system, which is strictly adhered to. We cannot therefore guarantee any member a space as the waiting lists, and average waiting time for certain facilities, are both long.
Club Car Park
We are fortunate to be able to offer members a private car park for their use. However, at certain times during the year, it becomes somewhat congested. On these occasions it is necessary for members to use the adjacent public car park for which there is a pay and display charge.
