Welcome to Blakeney Sailing Club

No matter the weather you will always find a warm welcome at the dinghy park at Blakeney. Do come along and say hello.

We sail in an area of outstanding natural beauty. The harbour is tidal but protected by a spit of land, which leads to Blakeney Point. It is an ideal location for sailing or the added challenge of racing. We also welcome kayaks/canoes and paddle boards.

Are you a seasoned sailor or you are just tempted to have a go? Have you got a boat or would you like help deciding which would most suit your needs? The club has members who have sailed at Blakeney for forty years and some who have only just started.

There is a comprehensive programme of events for members from March to October. In addition, during July/August we have we have mid-week holiday sailing, Fun Week and the annual regatta with a traditional bank start, which are open to non-members.

We do not have a Club House, but there is a dinghy park in which dinghies and kayaks/canoes can be stored and the club hut which is the meeting point for all events. We have two Patrol Boats for safety cover and a Committee Boat anchored in the race area.

The Club is run a committee which are all volunteers, and all members are expected to help out with Race Officer/Patrol Boat duties.

We also hold a number of social events throughout the year including BBQs, Prizegivings, winter pub series etc.

7th July 2024Late Summer seriesRace Officer John Myers writes:Here are the BSC race results for this morning.Getting up for the second day in a row at 5.45am today yielded the early morning rise more worthwhile. After an horrendous start to the day yesterday, when I really had to cancel the race, after a few takes and crew had gathered were trying to shelter from wind and rain in front of one side of the hut - see photo yesterday- I was very pleased to say the conditions were extremely favourable for good racing today. The first race got off on time from the cut and was finished at the line at Lapwing. Alan Robinson and Angela Harcourt in the Seafly 477 won the race. We welcomed back Charlie Williamson, who has found the sheltered waters of Blakeney more favourable than his Scottish haunts. He has lost none of his Laser handling expertise and finished 2nd. Amy Robinson and young Alfie were game for the first race and despite a capsize around number 7 buoy, managed to complete the race coming in 5th. There was still a big smile on Alfie’s face, despite the fact that he must have been very cold. They departed under three sails and headed back to the dinghy park, without putting up for a challenge in the second race. There were some fighting pairs in the second race. Andrew, not to be out-competed by Charlie, kept uopwith him and both Lasers were neck and neck for much of the race, until Andrew finally crept ahead. He won the second race with Charlie not far behind. There were 2 Solos fighting a rear-guard action. George in Solo 4435 coming in before Marcus in his Solo 5344 (George’s Solo number run backwards!!). Altogether some great sailing with winds not exceeding 17mph.Many thanks to David Rowe as my assistant, and to Amy Howes and Dylan Empson for the tour of duty in the patrol boat snd photos. I shall be returning as race officer for the Midweek Holiday racing sessions in August. But for now, I shall be taking a break. I trust the racing will go well for the International 14 weekend, NWNSA day and the Morston Regatta and others. ... See MoreSee Less
