Dinghy and Ajax Hire

The Club has a range of dinghies and keelboats that are available to hire by Club members. For the smaller dinghies, priority is given to those attending the Lion Cubs, On-Board and Lion Race Training junior sessions. Other than this, all boats are available to hire, for a practice sail, a local cruise or potter, or for the Club’s race programme.

Boats can be hired throughout the summer sailing period from April until the end of October and in the Winter months for racing.

Bookings are through the Office on  01473 780319 or office.manager@royalharwich.co.uk (Please ensure 72 hours notice is given)
