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...

Today saw the start of the spring series in glorious sunshine after storm Gareth had blown through. The racers took to the water and did battle with the wind and each other!

It was great to see the signs of spring appearing around the club with fresh growth of grass, flowers and the ever bothersome weeds! We are working hard to get the site tidy and sorted out ready for some of the main events – the first being our March 23rd Match Racing in our new Fusion dinghies followed by the Streaker and Solo Open the weekend after. Both events are worth coming along to – either spectating, catching up with friends or just to check on your boat.

See you at the club soon!
