Bath Sailing Club
Bath Sailing Club is a small friendly club that traditionally meets at The Village Club in Bathford (58 High Street, BA1 7SN) at 19:15 for 19:45 on the second Monday of the month throughout the winter.
Meetings usually start with an informal gathering in the bar then move into the function room for a talk from a guest speaker. The Crown Inn, just down the hill, serves excellent food should you fancy a meal first.
The club also organises RYA courses, obtaining group discounts for the participants.
Some club members offer berths on their own boats and others are willing to act as crew. Several club members privately charter, not as part of the club, and are often looking for additional crew to share the cost. If you are looking to get into sailing but do not have a yacht or the experience to charter on your own this may be of interest to you.
The club is starting to spread its wings with a loose tie-in with the Bristol Sailing Association.
For more information, please contact the Secretary or Chairman via our Contact page, or turn up on the night at The Village Club for a warm welcome!

Sailing for a living
We are delighted to welcome as our guest speaker, Tony Conder. Tony previously worked for British Waterways as their museum Curator. Now retired he researches and gives talks to local groups and volunteers with Gloucester Civic Trust.
This fascinating detailed presentation gives a real historical insight into the life and hard work crews put in on the old trading vessels working out of Gloucester. The vessels themselves are illustrated by size and type being able to work the Severn Estuary, Atlantic and Baltic areas.l Barnett.
Non-members are welcome for a small charge – £5 – at the door. All contributions will be passed to the guest speaker’s favoured charity.
