About CMYC – FAQ’s

The Friendliest Dinghy Sailing Club in Sussex? We like to think so. The Mariners have a well deserved reputation for being a very friendly club with a relaxed atmosphere, so if you’re interested in sailing, do feel free to come and visit us for a chat. Organised events take place on most weekends from March to December, or take advantage of a free trial sail on one of our Open days. Sailing dinghies come in all shapes and sizes (over 100 different Classes at last count). No matter what your weight, shape, age or level of fitness, there will be a class of boat to suit your needs. For members that do not own a boat the Club has a number of boats that can be used.

Membership

Many thanks for your interest in Crawley Mariners Yacht Club. We like to think we are very friendly club and welcome new members who are experienced dinghy sailors or novices wishing to learn to sail. If you are an inexperienced sailor we can teach you to sail on one of our RYA courses usually held in early summer. In addition there are our once a month Saturday Clubs these are informal sessions run by our RYA approved Instructors can teach you to sail at Hedgecourt Lake. Alternatively if you just want to sail on your own at Hedgecourt Lake, then that’s fine. Unusually for a yacht club the clubhouse and lake are available for use 365 days a year.

A RYA qualification is known and respected the world over and at CMYC we are proud to be delivering your training to these high standards. RYA approved sailing courses are run throughout the year and details can be found below and are also published in the Newsletter which is emailed to members each month. Additionally, we usually run two RYA Powerboat Level 2 courses, one prior to the start of the sailing season. These are two day courses and are for members only, equipping our members with the skills to perform their power boat club duties and supporting Saturday Clubs.
