opportunities
The South West coastline of Devon, Dorset
and Cornwall is renowned as one of the most
beautiful and popular cruising areas in the
country, with the Channel Islands, the Isles of
Scilly and coasts of Normandy and Brittany
all within comfortable cruising range for both
sailors and motorboaters. The club are keen
to encourage members to take full advantage
of the many cruising opportunities from our
wonderful base in Torquay.
Groups of members are always looking to
encourage new participants to join in cruising
trips and related social events. Cruising in
company can offer reassurance and peace
of mind to the less experienced and great
camaraderie for all who participate. Whether
you are new to cruising or experienced sailors,
you will be made very welcome.
The attractive harbours and estuaries of
Teignmouth, Exmouth, Lyme Regis, and
Weymouth to the East and Dartmouth,
Salcombe, Plymouth, Fowey and Falmouth to
the West, are all within comfortable cruising
range. These popular destinations have a wide
appeal to sailors and motorboaters alike and
are perfect for members in their early cruising
days.
The renowned locations and many ports of the
Channel Islands, Brittany and Normandy offer
a greater opportunity for the more experienced
and ambitious.
REPAIRS
A list of events planned by the welcoming and
