Royal Mersey Yacht Club Ltd

Everyone is welcome at Royal Mersey Yacht Club, from experienced sailors to interested novices. We specialise in sailing and racing keelboats, sportsboats and cruisers. Moorings and boat storage are available, with many social events throughout the year. We run a series of taster & training events to establish and develop new members within the club. Our main focus is on one-design keelboat racing, with fleets of Etchells, Squibs and the iconic classic boat the Mersey Mylne, designed specifically for the Club. There is also a developing fleet of cruisers and heritage boats. There is an active programme of racing from April to September offering both evening races and events at weekends and Bank Holidays. There is also a very active social programme – from regular suppers served after racing to formal dinners and balls. The Club offers members ample opportunity for post-race relaxation and many occasions for inviting guests to social events. We offer boat storage facilities and moorings accessible at any state of the tide. The Royal Mersey Yacht Club was given its Royal Charter by Queen Victoria in 1844, making it one of the longest established Yacht Clubs in the UK.
