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.

27th August 2025Séan writes:Days don’t get much better than this!A civilised start time, lovely sunshine and a perfect SW sailing breeze greeted the largest Flotilla fleet of the year so far. Ten boats and fourteen sailors.It was decided to make Stiffkey Freshes our destination as we had not been there this season. Fortunately Sue said she knew the route so, having assembled the fleet at the end of the cut, we set off on a close reach towards the pit. We experienced some decent gusts as we progressed but all the teams appeared equal to the challenge. It was good to see Hugh on his maiden Blakeney outing in his Cormorant dinghy which made remarkably good progress under its single sail. Will was with us for the second time in his restored Mirror and made a good job of sailing it single handed.On arriving at the Freshes I entered the water and immediately fell over, a tribute I thought to Julius Caesar, who famously said, having suffered the same humbling experience when arriving in Britain, “I came, I saw, I ate ginger bread tray bake!” or words to that effect.The sun drenched view of the point from Stiffkey was a delight as was the return sail to Blakeney followed by a challenging beat up the cut. Many thanks to the patrol boat crews who rendered assistance to those in need.Sadly one of our number suffered damage to the transom of their boat whilst coming ashore. Having made many mistakes myself over the years, I now adopt the following procedure on approaching land.I furl the jib as this improves visibility and slows the boat. I uncleat the rudder and half raise the centre board in anticipation of grounding. It is hard to overstate the value of a slow approach. I hope that is helpful.Our next event is on Wednesday the 10th September. ... See MoreSee Less
