Helping to get more people sailing, more often
Welcome to Ripon Sailing Club, the best family friendly sailing club in the area.
We always welcome new members, so if you are a prospective member and want to find out more about us you should visit the About pages where you will find details of membership fees, application forms, when and what we sail as well as what you can expect as a member.
We have a new arrangement in place for the supply of club branded clothing, and a much wider range of goods available for you to buy! The new supplier is Wave Clothing and if you follow this link to their website and click on the 'Club Kit' tab you will find a tab for Ripon Sailing Club. The clothing ranges from tee-shirts through to sweatshirts and hoodies, and there are also jackets and gilets. Some clothing will simply be embroidered with the club logo and any personalisation you want (eg your name, boat number etc.) whilst others can be screen printed with the design of the class of boat you sail. There’s a wide range of colour combinations, you pay online and the goods are delivered direct to you.
We still have a small stock of Team Ripon Junior Hoodies and RSC Sweatshirts in stock at the club but don’t intend to replace this stock once it’s all gone.
Note that there is now a link within the Members menu to the Wave Clothing website, you need to "log in" to get to this!

Owing to a lack of wind the Fleet Trophy event was abandoned on its original date. It was rescheduled for Sunday 21 July.
It will replace the Holiday series races on that day, so the Holiday series will have only 15 races instead of 18 in the programme.
This weekend saw a number of the regular helms travel to open events, Saturday saw some of the Solo fleet venturing to YDSC for round 7 of the Northern Traveller Series, some nice images can be found here... and a report on the event here...
The Streakers ventured a bit further afield to Northampton SC for their 2 day National Championships, Chris Wright, Dan Phillips and Paul Thomas-Peter enjoyed 2 days sailing in light winds and sunshine. Report here... Results here...
The N12 Vintage Championships at Burton SC saw Bernard & Ellie Clark, Philip David and Howard Chadwick enjoy 2 days of racing their vintage N12's with some success, a photo gallery of the event is here...
