A new clubhouse built in 2006 is the pride of the club and hosts many social activities throughout the year.  The club caters for all sailors from the novice to the experienced racer.  The club races every Sunday during the year and Wednesday nights during the summer months.  The water is open any other time for recreational sailing.
