We have a great need for able bodied members to assist with a vast range of tasks, not least; launching, rigging and recovering boats, maintenance of boats and a multitude of other on shore activities. We are also looking for anyone to join us who has administrative skills for Thursdays and Saturday mornings.
If you have knowledge of sailing, that is great. However, it is not essential, we have the necessary expertise to train in all aspects of our activities.
Not a sailor? Never say never!
We are a members only club and there is a small annual joining fee.
We operate on a Thursday all day and a Saturday morning for our youth members
Skills
We are looking for reception volunteers, fund raisers, photographers, IT experts, boat repairers, marketing and publicity…. and the list goes on.
