Welcome to Ripon SC

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

RSC is an RYA Teaching Establishment, and offers a wide range of dinghy and powerboat related courses to it’s members. The family friendly nature of the club is also recognised by our RYA Champion 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.

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 the new programme of learn to sail courses will commence in Spring 2018.

A Few Words from the Commodore...

We are heading towards the clocks going back and with that we move to our Frostbite series. This is an ‘open’ series and it would be lovely to see visitors come and join us, so please encourage friends at local clubs to consider a spot of ‘pond sailing’ in November and December. It’s often the best time of year for sailing and we have had some really competitive series in the past so let’s make this a year to remember. I will do my best to be out on the water!

Don’t forget we have some cracking social functions coming up – there’s a lunch at the club on 8 November which is open to all, and then on 17 December we have our Christmas Lunch. Bookings for both are via the website.

Happy sailing,

Bernard
