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.

31st July 2025Thursday morning, the 4th day of fun week and participants still going strong - not surprising after the amount of cake eaten this week!David Rowe and his team mate Roland, both kayak coaches, very kindly treated a small group of keen kayakers to a training session. We started on the slipway with kayaks ready and David went through how to hold and use a paddle as well as some of the mysteries of the blades. We then hit the water and started to practice paddling in a straight line, followed by turns, kayaking backwards and sideways. Confident we set off towards Buoy 6 for some deep water practice. David demonstrated self recovery with a roll! Those willing to get wet, inverted their kayaks and with some instruction all managed to climb back on with varying degrees of elegance. Team rescue achieved, we had a quick 'catch the custard cream' before heading back to the slipway with some of us trying out David's small agile kayak and learning even more techniques.It was a brilliant and very useful morning. A big thanks to both David and Roland for so kindly giving up their time to teach us important skills. ... See MoreSee Less

31st July 2025And the fun goes on. Thursday morning sailing:At the briefing various ideas were put to the participants, including a) Sailing Bingob) Grab the biscuit from the crew on the Patrol Boatc) Practising race startsIn the end we just had fun and more or less did all three, though we never did completely understand the rules of Sailing Bingo! Steve and Simon in the patrol boat commenced the starting sequence for a race from Lapwing to buoy 4. The intention was to help demystify the start line, how to get there, when to get there, what tack to be on etc etc. It was not about the winning (says the person who came last)? The second race sequence commenced at exactly the same time as a little series of gusts and changes of wind direction resulted in one of our company capsizing. The patrol boat stood by whilst they righted the boat and set sail again, though retiring. They were escorted back to safety.Steve held up a hand with a biscuit in it and the nearest sailor manoeuvred into position to take it! This happened on several occasions, at different times and unexpected places!We sailed over to the kayaks near buoy 6, where they were being instructed. We just wanted to see what they were up to.The Wheelyboat Poppy passed by, and waves were exchanged between those on board.Henry, Marcus, Jacob and Alan played follow the leader around an improvised course until it was sensible to set off for home. A race was decised to make the homeward bound leg a little interesting…. ... See MoreSee Less
