Welcome to Ripon SC

A warm welcome awaits you at Ripon SC, whether you are a seasoned club racer, or a complete novice.

The family friendly nature of the club, and our success in developing junior and youth sailors is recognised by our British Youth Sailing ‘Recognised Club’ status. Club members are able to enjoy access to the facilities 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and there’s a packed programme of on and off the water activities. Racing takes place on Wednesday afternoons and evenings throughout the summer, and on Sundays all year round. We are also an RYA Teaching Establishment, and offers a wide range of dinghy and powerboat related courses to our members.

Learn to Sail at RSC

At Ripon Sailing Club we offer you a quick, easy and safe way to learn to sail. We provide a range of courses to help you progress and make the most of your time afloat, whatever your age, ability or aspirations. We are a recognised RYA training establishment and the courses are taken by fully qualified RYA instructors who are volunteers. Our courses are for members only and run throughout the summer, with the final programmes of the year in September. Dates are published on the calendar and bookings are can be made for each course once the event is ‘open to book’.

A Few Words from the Commodore...

I am delighted to announce that the club has open it’s gates again today for members to make essential checks on their boats, remove or replace boats in the dinghy park and to exercise on the water. Control measures are in place on site and members should have received an email from me detailing how we intend to move forward as well as some of the FAQs we have been answering.

It is a testament to the hard work of this committee and our wider partners at the RYA, that we are able to get to this point so quickly. Our emphasis will be on delivering a Safe, Considerate and Conservative return to boating and I hope all members will support us in this.
